    Summary of facts

    Extract:

    "In its Judgment [No. 69] quashing the decision not to confirm the appointment of the complainant at the end of the probationary period on the grounds of failure to comply with the recognised procedure and infringement of the right to be heard, the Tribunal invited the organization to reopen the case, to enable the complainant to exercise his rights, and to consider whether he should be reinstated. At the same time it reserved the complainant's right to claim compensation whether or not he was reinstated." The complainant was not reinstated and he requests the Tribunal to fix compensation.

    Consideration 2

    Extract:

    "Far from having been able normally to defend his interests before the Director-General, the complainant [...] was not invited to comment on the documents which were submitted without his knowledge. [...] Even if the appeals procedure was properly complied with, the previous infringement of the right to be heard was not thereby corrected, since the officer who took the first decision had based himself to a considerable extent on evaluations which the higher authority apparently accepted without checking them all personally."

    Keywords:

    internal appeal; procedural flaw; right to reply;

    Consideration 2

    Extract:

    The right to be heard was doubly ignored. The Regional Director terminated the appointment of the complainant without submitting to him a period evaluation report or affording him the opportunity of justifying himself. In the appeals proceedings, reports were produced the existence of which the complainant only became aware during the proceedings before the Tribunal and with regard to which he accordingly had not opportunity to state his case in time. The decision to terminate the appointment is quashed.

    Keywords:

    disclosure of evidence; flaw; probation report; procedural flaw; right to reply;

    Consideration 4

    Extract:

    "Infringement of the right to be heard being sufficient to entail the quashing of the decision complained of, the Tribunal does not have to consider whether any other reason would also have justified this conclusion."

    Keywords:

    flaw; procedural flaw; right to reply;

    11th Session, 1962
    United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization
    Extracts: EN, FR
    Full Judgment Text: EN, FR

    Consideration 4

    Extract:

    The Tribunal is competent to pass judgment on the irregularities allegedly committed by the Appeals Board only to the extent that they might, "particularly by reason of their gravity, have affected the Director-General's decision." This is not a case in point: there was a hearing of both parties; the allegations made by complainant are without substance or relevance.

    Keywords:

    consequence; decision; flaw; internal appeal; internal appeals body; judicial review; lack of injury; procedural flaw;



  • Judgment 32


    7th Session, 1958
    United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization
    Extracts: EN, FR
    Full Judgment Text: EN, FR

    Considerations

    Extract:

    The irregularities indicated "resulted in depriving complainant of the opportunity of effectively discussing the appreciations made by his superiors, a fact aggravated by reason of the irregularities by which the procedure of the [Advisory] Committee was tainted, resulting in complainant being unable to avail himself of a procedure under which he might have been able to emphasise the qualities he claimed with a view to possibly obtaining an indeterminate appointment [...]. In this manner, the complainant was deprived of the possibility of having the decision taken modified, a possibility available to him under the Staff Regulations and Rules."

    Keywords:

    advisory body; consultation; contract; due process; fixed-term; flaw; non-renewal of contract; permanent appointment; procedural flaw; refusal; right to reply; work appraisal;

    Considerations

    Extract:

    The organization offered to submit the case of the complainant to a committee "since that committee had met in order to consider the case its recommendations should have been drawn up within the required conditions". Two of the members of the committee did not take part in all the meetings. One had not seen the report and another had signed a text which contained one of the recommendations" even in the absence of rules of procedure. These facts constitute serious irregularities surrounding the recommendations of the [...] committee."

    Keywords:

    advisory body; flaw; internal appeals body; no provision; procedural flaw; procedure before the tribunal;



  • Judgment 13


    4th Session, 1954
    Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations
    Extracts: EN, FR
    Full Judgment Text: EN, FR

    Considerations

    Extract:

    The Director-General based his decision on the provision empowering him to dismiss at any time a probationer whose services are deemed unsatisfactory on condition that the reasons for the decision be given in writing. The internal appeals body believed that the provision on the interests of the organization afforded a further possible justification for the measure. The director confirmed the decision. "At that stage [...] a change of grounds would have vitiated the procedure".
