Judgment No. 125
Decision
1. As an interlocutory decision on the first claim, the Organization is directed to produce copies of the letters of 19 July, 26 July and 13 August 1963, and 7 October 1964, in accordance with the terms of this judgment.
2. The second claim is dismissed.
Consideration 1
Extract:
The organization based its conclusions on letters and the contents thereof "as evidence against the complainant". The complainant is accordingly "entitled to see the letters; and it is not enough that he should be provided with extracts or summaries of such parts of the letters as the organization considers to be relevant." The organization has admitted that passages have been omitted relating to extraneous subjects or which the organization considers confidential, the reasons for any such omissions having been given. If the Tribunal decides to examine the omitted passages, "the complete letters will [...] be produced only to the Tribunal itself and will not be shown to the complainant" unless the Tribunal so decides.
