  Consideration 9

  Extract:

  Mr. B., intervening in a previous case, had resorted to an expert in graphology in order to prove that the complainant, who contested his appointment to a post, had falsified documents. He seeks reimbursement of the costs incurred in obtaining this expert opinion. "The steps he took were not necessary since, when expert opinion is required, it is for the Tribunal to order it on its own motion or on the application of another party (Article 11 of the Rules of the Tribunal). Mr. B. should therefore have confined himself to submitting the question to the Tribunal, which would have judged the pertinence of the matter and the validity of the proof supplied. The costs which he incurred in obtaining an extra-judicial expert opinion, which cannot replace a judicial expert opinion, were not therefore necessary." So they are not reimbursable by the organisation.

  Consideration 4

  Extract:

  "The expert's fee [...] has been paid by the International Labour Organization. Since the expert's inquiry was a step in assessing the amount of the compensation for which the defendant organization is liable, the cost of the inquiry must be borne by the organization." It will reimburse the ILO with the amount in question.

  Consideration 9

  Extract:

  "It appears from the organization's statements, as reasonably interpreted, that the complainant is entirely exempted from the expenses of the Medical Board if the rate of incapacity originally fixed is changed, it being irrelevant whether such a change results from the independent decision of the Director-General or is ordered by the Tribunal. It follows that as the complainant's claims have been partly recognised by the Tribunal his claim for the reimbursement of the share of expenses attributed to him is well founded."
