Considerations 8-9
Extract:
The complainant suffered from retinal detachments and a detachment of the vitreous. The organization recognised her eye condition as service incurred. In "September 1998 [...] the [organization] decide[d] to stop reimbursing the bills [she submitted] on [the] grounds [...] that curing her retinal detachments was no longer the object of the treatment. However, it did not show that the service-incurred injuries were not a "direct and principal" cause of the treatment [... ] The Tribunal takes the view that although, as the organization says, the decision to stop reimbursing the bills was at the discretion of the Director-General, it could not be taken without an independent expert medical opinion obtained through a process which provides all the safeguards of transparency and impartiality." The case is therefore sent back to the organization.

Consideration 7
Extract:
"The issue to be resolved [...] is whether the complainants are barred from objecting to the [organisation]'s failure to take into account the corrected level of salaries for 1995 in determining the salaries for 1996 and 1997, because they did not first challenge their salaries for 1996 and 1997 [... ] when they were originally fixed. But in view of the circumstances, to make such a demand on them would be pedantic and wanting in good faith. As the parties were aware at the time, the salary levels for 1995 were under challenge [...] Moreover, any change in salary levels will ordinarily affect pay in subsequent years. The staff therefore had good reason to believe that a change in pay for 1995 would have a "knock on" effect on the level of salaries used as a basis for calculating pay in the future. Moreover, the [organisation] could be in no doubt that this was what staff would expect. In these circumstances, and having given them no indication to the contrary, the [organisation] could not require staff to challenge each new determination of their salaries on the conditional and hypothetical basis that any successful challenge to the remuneration for a previous year (in this case 1995) should automatically be carried through to the salary levels taken into account in subsequent years."

Consideration 16
Extract:
The complainant's contract was not renewed upon expiry. "Interim Staff Rule 4.4.02(b) provides that separation as a result of the expiration of an appointment shall not be regarded as a termination [...] Rule 9.1.01(b) defines termination [...] as any separation initiated by the Director-General, other than the expiration of a contract. Therefore, the question of any termination indemnity payable to the complainant does not arise."

Consideration 5
Extract:
"The complainant [objects] to the amount of time the [organisation] took to finalise [his staff] reports [...] The [organisation] did not respect all the time limits, which caused considerable delay. Such delay could per se have adverse effects, particularly on the way relatively distant facts are perceived. But performance reports continue to be useful [...] Failure to meet a deadline cannot on its own be a reason for setting aside reports but, depending on the case, the effect that the delay has on the report's content will be taken into account".

Consideration 8
Extract:
After the complainant underwent surgery, the insurance brokers refused to cover his convalescence in a home. "In order to assess any physical injury suffered by the complainant, it is necessary to ascertain the later consequences for his health of the refusal to meet the costs of his admission to a convalescent home, and the fact that he did not as a result stay in such a home. These are purely medical matters which [...] need to be referred to the Invalidity Committee".

Consideration 5
Extract:
"While the complaint may seem to show no cause of action, since the decision to suspend him has been revoked, the measure did have material - although not financial - and particularly moral consequences during the period for which it was in effect. Certain of the complainant's duties were withdrawn, although he continued to receive full pay. In these conditions, the complaint does still show cause for action [...]."

Extract:
The texts provide that one member of the Selection Committee "must be the Staff Association's President or his nominee'. [...] Here the Staff Association refused to take part in the selection. Although a representative of the Association is free to take part, his refusal to do so cannot make the Committee's choice void. If that were so, the Staff Association's representative would have a veto [...]."

Consideration 10
Extract:
"As the Tribunal has said before, there may be a cause of action even if there is no present injury: time may go by before the impugned decision causes actual injury. The necessary, yet sufficient, condition of a cause of action is a reasonable presumption that the decision will bring injury. The decision must have some present effect on the complainant's position."

Consideration 8
Extract:
"The Organization may not rely on the complainant's apparent willingness in March 1995 to accept a two-year extension of his contract: since it did not reply to his letter [...] it did not accept his offer. In April 1995 he sought an extension by five years, thereby withdrawing any offer to settle for two."

Consideration 9
Extract:
"When [the complainant's] unpaid leave expired the Organization took no decision for sixteen months as to whether or not to extend his appointment, which was therefore automatically extended". The consequence of its failure to take a decision at the time is that the automatic extension of his contract was "by whatever period would have been normal." (In this case the normal period would have been five years).

Consideration 4
Extract:
The Director-General took a premature decision not to renew the complainant's appointment. The Tribunal holds that "for want of a valid decision to terminate his appointment, the contract between the complainant and the organization is still in force and he is entitled to payment of salary and allowances as from the purported date of termination. UNESCO must also decide whether to reinstate him. In view of his seniority his appointment would not have been bound to end if due process had been observed. In deciding whether or not to renew his contract the organization must comply with any procedural and substantive rules that are material."

Considerations 11-12
Extract:
The President's decision on the complainant's internal appeal was made on the strength of internal correspondence that the complainant had never seen and that the Appeals Committee had never considered. "That constituted a gross breach of due process." Because of the breach of Article 113(1) of the Staff Regulations on the procedure before the Appeals Committee the President's decision must be set aside.

When the dispute is about financial liability the Tribunal may in the full exercise of its competence either state the amount of which the defendant is liable, if a sufficiently exact figure can be put on it, or else, where execution calls for further calculation or the play of discretion, send the case back to the organisation so that it may act on the rulings in the judgment."

Extract:
"Disciplinary proceedings, and the safeguards they afford, are relevant in the event of misconduct warranting disciplinary action while an official is under contract, and one possible sanction is termination of the appointment, whatever its duration may be. Disciplinary proceedings do not apply in the event of due expiry of a fixed-term appointment, when the issue is whether in the light ofpast performance the contract should be renewed. An organisation must be allowed full freedom to decide the issue without having to go through the disciplinary procedure."

Consideration 8
Extract:
The organization submits that there was no point in resuming the process of appointment as ordered in Judgment 1272. "But there the organization shows misunderstanding about the effect of a judgment. The quashing of [Mr. X's] appointment [...] being res judicata, it had a duty under the judgment to resume the process from the date of the unlawful appointment, regardless of the new situation arising from the expiry of [Mr. X's] appointment and his assignment to [another] post [...]. The complainants are therefore right in contending that the organization was at fault in refusing to carry out the process properly."

The complainants seek the quashing of a decision in which the WTO refused to resume the appointment process as ordered in Judgment 1272. "Yet any satisfaction that the complainants might derive from resumption of the procedure would be merely formal [so] the Tribunal exercises the option that Article VIII of its Statute allows of not setting aside the [impugned] decisions."
