Consideration 5

Extract:

Considerations 2-3

Extract:

It follows from Article XII of the Statute of the Tribunal "that the possibility of submitting the question of the validity of the decision given by the Tribunal to the International Court of Justice is exclusively vested in the governing body of [the Organisation] or the administrative board of the pensions fund, as is borne out by the court itself (advisory opinion dated 23 October 1956, ICJ reports, 1956, page 77 and pages 84-85). Such a possibility is open in the sole interest of the organisation [...]. Moreover, the exercise of this right must inevitably lead the governing body to take a stand on the validity of judgments rendered by the Administrative Tribunal."
