Consideration 2
Extract:
"The case law says that when authorised to refuse, without notice or compensation, to renew such an appointment the Director-General has discretion which he exercises subject to an implied requirement of respect for the demands of efficient administration and for the organization's interests. The rule consistently applied is that, short of replacing the Director-General's appraisal of the evidence with its own, the Tribunal will set aside a decision not to renew that was taken without authority [...]".

"WHO Staff Rule 1050.1 allows termination of a staff member's temporary appointment before the date of expiry if the post he is on is abolished. Although the Director-General has discretion in deciding whether to do away with a post his decision is subject to review: the Tribunal will quash it if there has been breach of some procedural or formal rule [etc]".

Summary
Extract:
For several years the complainants have been trying to obtain review of the description and grading of their posts. Their claims have all been rejected. The Tribunal was satisfied that on the evidence the description of their duties was out of date. In the circumstances the organization committed a mistake of law by refusing to carry out the requested review.
Keywords:
amendment to the rules; elements; flaw; judicial review; post classification; post description;
Consideration 5
Extract:
"The grading of a post depends on evaluation of the work done and the degree of responsibility involved. Such evaluation must be done by those who by training and experience are able to apply the relevant technical criteria, and the Tribunal will interfere only if the organization is shown to have applied the wrong principles or drawn illogical conclusions."

Consideration 2
Extract:
"Even where termination before expiry is due to the necessities of the service there must be explanation and justification of the decision because it amounts to unilateral breach of the contract. The Director-General does not then have the discretionary authority he may exercise on expiry and, for one thing, the Tribunal will consider whether the decision serves the organisation's interests, as it should."

Consideration 5
Extract:
"The Tribunal may review the lawfulness of a decision by the appointing authority to extend probation. But because of the nature of the decision the Tribunal will, short of finding a formal or procedural flaw - which it does not in this case - exercise only limited review. [In such matters] the competent authority [is] allowed wide discretion".

Considerations 3-4
Extract:
"The interests of both justice and sound administration demand that the organisation endure litigation: it is not for the organisation but for the Tribunal itself to determine whether the complainant has abused his right of appeal and, if so, what ruling is fitting in the circumstances. [The organisation] may [...] submit that [the complainant] has abused the right of appeal and invite the Tribunal not just to dismiss his complaint but to declare it vexatious and, where appropriate, take any further action it thinks fit. For the foregoing reasons the Tribunal holds that it was wrong to impose the reprimand on the complainant and it must be quashed."

Consideration 3
Extract:
"The case law of the Tribunal supports the principle that when the Director General is granted authority not to renew a fixed-term appointment, and to do so without notice or indemnity, his power is discretionary and is subject to the implied condition that his authority must be exercised only for the good of the service and in the interests of the organization. The Tribunal has held that a decision not to renew a fixed-term contract taken in the exercise of this discretion is subject to review, but the consistent case law is that the Tribunal will interfere with the decision only if it was taken without authority, [...]".

Keywords:
binding character; condition; enforcement; executive head; general decision; icsc decision; judicial review;
Consideration 22
Extract:
"Another plea of the complainants' is that the [International Civil Service] Commission misused its authority by availing itself of the post adjustment with the improper intent of checking an allegedly undue widening of the margin. One reason why the plea fails is that, as has been seen, the Commission acted intra vires. In authorising the Commission to suspend the increase in the post adjustment the Assembly also authorised the purpose of doing so."

"The Tribunal may not replace with its own the Director-General's assessment of a staff member's conduct, work and qualifications. All it may do in the matter of an appointment, promotion or transfer is review the decision to see whether it was taken without authority, or whether there was a procedural or formal flaw, or a mistake of law or of fact, or abuse of authority, or a mistaken conclusion from the evidence, or whether some essential fact was overlooked."
