Summary
Extract:
As to identity in the cause of action, Mr [A.] notes that the Tribunal had in part rejected the complainants' plea of breach of good faith on the grounds that they had taken up duty after the new criteria had taken effect. Mr [A.] contends that this reasoning does not apply to him insofar as he had taken up duty before the change in rules. The Tribunal acknowledges that there is on this point a new cause of action; however it holds on the merits that a staff member has no right, save in exceptional cases, to demand that the rules on promotion in force at the time of appointment should never be modified.

Consideration 24
Extract:
The complainant "decided that it was not necessary to appeal in accordance with the rules and get a final decision. His arguments justifying his inaction are not well founded. His decision not to pursue an appeal was made deliberately and on legal advice, and he was not misled by the organization: the appropriate rules were supplied to him. His explanation is without merit and unacceptable."

Summary
Extract:
The complainant was informed on 9 March 1984 of the decision not to extend his sick leave, confirming the date on which he was to be separated. The complainant lodged a protest by letter on 25 July 1984. Although that letter was not in the usual form of an appeal, the organization agreed to treat it as one. The organization's well-meaning offer was expressly turned down by the complainant. His refusal brought an end to contacts between the parties and the complainant never obtained a final decision from the Director-General.

Summary
Extract:
Faced with the administration's failure to take action on the basis of the Appeals Committee's report, the complainant filed a complaint within the three-month time limit set by Article VII of the Statute of the Tribunal. The final decision was later taken, after the expiry of the time limits in the Service Regulations. It follows that the organisation's objections to receivability must be dismissed. The proceedings shall resume on the merits.

Consideration 9
Extract:
The complainant claims that Circular 144 on the reckoning of seniority for promotion should be withdrawn. The claim is irreceivable inasmuch as "the complainant is not challenging an individual decision but objecting to certain general rules in the Circular. As the Tribunal has held before - for example in Judgment 625 [...] - a complaint impugning a general decision against which no direct internal appeal will lie is irreceivable until individual decisions are taken on the strength of the general decision."

Consideration 2
Extract:
"Under Article R VI 1.03 of the Staff Regulations of the ESO appeals must be addressed to the Director General [...] Here the complainant contends that the notice of appeal contained in a telex message dated 20 March 1986 addressed to the ESO's legal adviser [who is not an ESO staff member] was a valid notice of appeal against a decision notified to the complainant on 21 February 1986. The argument fails because the language of the rules makes it clear beyond doubt that any appeal against a decision taken on behalf of the ESO must be addressed to the organisation, which alone is competent to judge the matter."

Summary
Extract:
The complainants object to the FAO's adoption of a new scale to determine pensionable remuneration whose effect was to lower their pension entitlements. They submit that the application of certain provisions in the Staff Regulations and Staff Rules is in breach of their acquired rights and the rule against retroactivity. "Their complaints will [...] be receivable only if the application of those Regulations and Rules [causes] them injury. The Tribunal concludes from the material rules that it does not."

Consideration 7
Extract:
As a result of the adoption of a new scale of pensionable remuneration, Article 3.1.1 of the ILO Staff Regulations was amended. "The complainants' case does not rest on breach of any term of their contracts or of any provision of the Staff Regulations. What they are saying is that as applied to them Article 3.1.1 of the Regulations impairs their acquired rights. Their complaints will therefore be receivable if the application of 3.1.1 does cause them injury."

Consideration 3
Extract:
The organization argues that because the post was regraded there was no longer any point in the complainant's challenging the lawfulness of the appointment. "The plea relates only to part of [the complainant's] claims and it fails anyway. As an unsuccessful candidate he may challenge any decision that served to invalidate the holding of the competition."

Consideration 2
Extract:
"[T]he rule [by which receivability hinges on the official's having exhausted the internal means of redress] is not a hard-and-fast one, even though the Statute does not expressly allow any derogation from it. The derogation should in all fairness be allowed if the complainant has done his utmost to obtain a decision, but on the evidence a decision seems unlikely to be taken in reasonable time."
