Consideration 6

Extract:

The defendant organisation does not raise as an issue the question of whether the complainant has a cause of action concerning the appointment of Ms Y.S. or otherwise put in issue the receivability of the complaint insofar as it directly challenges that appointment. However, it cannot be assumed that one member of staff has an unfettered right to challenge the transfer of another member of staff (see Judgment 2670, consideration 5).
