2. HIS OTHER CLAIMS ARE DISMISSED.

Consideration 10

Extract:

"Although Judgment 1133 declared [the complainant's] dismissal null and void it did not order reinstatement." The WHO exercised the "option of paying him financial compensation: that was in lieu of reinstatement".

Consideration 11

Extract:

"An international organisation which has recognised the Tribunal's jurisdiction is bound, not merely to refrain from acting in disregard of a judgment, but to take whatever action the judgment may require."

Considerations 11-12

Extract:

"An organisation must, where a specific sum has been awarded [by the Tribunal], pay compensation if it takes more than one month to pay after the judgment was notified, save that if, as in Judgment 1219, the Tribunal does not put a figure on the amount due, the need to work out the figure warrants allowing additional time. In this instance [...] apart from alleging the need for consultations the Organization has offered no explanation for the delay in payment. The Tribunal therefore awards the complainant payment of interest".
