Consideration 14
Extract:
"The organization submits that it followed a practice introduced by the master standard for job classification which the International Civil Service Commission has approved and which applies throughout the United Nations system. But the master standard does not apply directly to the staff of the international organisations: it consists of mere guidelines which the organisations are free to introduce into their own regulations."

Consideration 3
Extract:
"The plea that no reasons were given for the impugned decision is also unsound. There can be no obligation whatever on the EPO to state its reasons for introducing scales approved by the Council. Such a decision finds its justification quite simply in the administration's position of subordination to the Council."

Summary
Extract:
The complainants are impugning the decision by the Administrative Council of the EPO to impose a temporary levy of 1.5 per cent on staff members' salaries. The Tribunal holds that the Council's decision falls within the scope of its powers. Inasmuch as the levy is temporary and very small and there is a guarantee of nominal basic salary, the Tribunal concludes that there was no breach of the complainants' acquired rights.

Consideration 2
Extract:
"The general decision impugned* in this case puts no exact figure on the entitlement of the staff members concerned. That will be determined only when the administration comes to take individual decisions in pursuance of the general decision, viz. the Council's approval of the new text of [the] Article". (*) amending a provision in the Service Regulations on benefits payable in the event of invalidity.
Keywords:
amendment to the rules; competence of tribunal; general decision; individual decision; invalidity; provision; receivability of the complaint; staff regulations and rules;
Summary
Extract:
The impugned decision is one of the Administrative Council. The Tribunal has ruled that cases challenging a general decision are irreceivable, since such a decision must ordinarily be followed by individual decisions against which appeal does lie.

Consideration 1
Extract:
"The fact that the impugned decision affects several categories of staff and is therefore general in character is not in itself sufficient to make the complaints irreceivable. Decisions which may be challenged before the Tribunal do not have to be individual in nature. That they may also be general is plain from Article VII, paragraph 2, of the Statute of the Tribunal [a complaint must also comply with] the rule in Article VII(1) of the Statute that the internal means of redress must have been exhausted."

Consideration 2
Extract:
The complainant "is asking the Tribunal to set aside the Council's decision, not in its entirety, but only insofar as it affects himself. [The argument fails.] Obviously to set the impugned decision aside insofar as it affects the complainant would in fact have much the same consequences as to set it aside erga omnes.

Consideration 4
Extract:
By virtue of Article VII[1], "the Tribunal will declare irreceivable a complaint impugning a general decision against which there can be no direct internal appeal, but which must ordinarily be followed by individual decisions against which such appeal does lie. There are two reasons for so construing Article VII. The first is that the Tribunal is relieved of ruling on the validity of a general decision to which it may be unable to foresee exactly how effect will be given. The second is that the Tribunal will not be acting on an application from a single complainant to set aside a general decision which other staff may not object to."

Keywords:

Consideration 4
Extract:
The impugned decision is a general one. "Before coming before the Tribunal the complainant must wait until the administration has taken individual decisions concerning him and he has exhausted the internal means of redress. To declare his complaints irreceivable causes him no prejudice since he may appeal against future individual decisions, first inside the organisation, and then, if necessary to the Tribunal."

Extract:
"Decisions which may be challenged before the Tribunal do not have to be individual in nature. That they may also be general is plain from Article VII, paragraph 2, of the Statute of the Tribunal [...] but a complaint against a general decision will not perforce on that account be receivable. There is also the rule in Article VII(1) of the Statute that the internal means of redress must have been exhausted."

Consideration 3
Extract:
The complaint is presented in the form of a challenge to the Director-General's decision not to withdraw a circular. In point of fact it is challenging the circular itself, a general and abstract rule. The claim on this point is irreceivable. The Tribunal will rule on the validity of a general and abstract rule only by way of exception, while hearing a complaint which challenges an actual decision.
Keywords:
administrative instruction; application for quashing; competence of tribunal; general decision;
Consideration 3
Extract:
"The Tribunal hears complaints challenging decisions which are individual acts, not complaints directed against abstract rules of general purport. That its competence is so restricted is evident in particular from Article VIII of its Statute". The Tribunal will rule on the validity of a general and abstract rule "only by way of exception, viz. when hearing a complaint which challenges an actual decision."

Consideration 1
Extract:
"Where the guidelines properly modify the requirements of the Service Regulations they confer on the President an authority of his own which he exercises in the general interest and as befits the particular circumstances. [...] The wording of the guidelines is such that they cannot be treated as nothing more than standards or goals [...] They set objective and binding criteria for deciding on individual staff cases, and, while not ignoring the President's discretionary authority, the Tribunal will review the application of the rules the Council has laid down."
