    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 [...]".

    Full Judgment Text: EN, FR

    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 The Tribunal was satisfied that on the evidence the description of their duties was out of date.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:

    "In the case of dismissal of a probationer, the administration should be allowed the widest measure of discretion and the decision will be quashed only if the mistake or illegality was especially serious or glaring."

  • Judgment 901


    64th Session, 1988
    International Labour Organization
    Extracts: EN, FR
    Full Judgment Text: EN, FR

    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."

  • Judgment 899

    Full Judgment Text: EN, FR

    Consideration 17

    Extract:

    "Besides safeguarding the staff member's interests, the requirement [that the grounds on which a decision is based should be stated] enables the Tribunal to review, something it cannot do properly when the purpose and legal basis of the decision and the reasons underlying it are unexplained."

    European Patent Organisation
    Extracts: EN, FR
    Full Judgment Text: EN, FR

    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".

    European Patent Organisation
    Extracts: EN, FR
    Full Judgment Text: EN, FR

    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 4

    Extract:

    World Intellectual Property Organization
    Extracts: EN, FR
    Full Judgment Text: EN, FR

    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, [...]".

    Consideration 18

    Extract:

    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."

    Extract:

    "The Tribunal may not replace with its own the Director-General's assessment of a staff member's conduct, work and qualifications.
