Consideration 6
Extract:
[T]he complainant submits that by refusing UNESCO’s request that it be allowed to confine its reply to the issue of the receivability of the complaint, the President of the Tribunal had necessarily dismissed UNESCO’s objection to receivability. The complainant is mistaken. The President’s decision, issued in the exercise of his general power to direct the conduct of the proceedings, in no way prejudged the receivability of the complaint and had no bearing on the complainant’s duty to exhaust internal remedies.
