Considerations
Extract:
"The complaint does not allege the non-observance of any term of appointment or of any staff regulation. The Tribunal is therefore not competent to hear it." The complainant tendered his resignation and discharged no further duties. He claims damages equivalent to the amount of his salary for the period from his resignation to what would have been the end of his contract. He considers that the organization treated him unfairly upon his departure.

Consideration 3
Extract:
The material decision would have had the effect of setting a new time limit for filing a complaint only if it had altered the previous decision or at least provided further justification for it. Since it amounted to mere confirmation, it does not affect the irreceivability of the complaint as held by the Tribunal.
Keywords:
confirmatory decision; decision; new time limit; receivability of the complaint; time bar; time limit;
Consideration 1
Extract:
The Staff Regulations provide for two internal means of redress: a 'request' that the Director General take a decision and a 'complaint' against an act adversely affecting the staff member. As the Tribunal held in Judgment No. 398, any application challenging a decision must be treated as a 'complaint'.

Consideration 11
Extract:
The letter in question, unlike the other letters is headed: "An appeal for [...]"; it is addressed to the Director-General (unlike the others) and it concludes with three claims that are much the same as those before the Tribunal. "It is therefore beyond doubt that [this] letter [...] is the only one to qualify, in form and content, as a [...] 'complaint'". (It is, however, time-barred.)

Consideration 6
Extract:
The complainants contend that the organisation had been in continuous breach of its obligations by failing to safeguard their enjoyment of entitlements they had before a specific date. They therefore allege that the organization acted unlawfully since that date. "The impugned decision therefore recurred right up to the date of the internal appeal, and that appeal was in time. The internal means of redress must be deemed to have been exhausted even though the Board did not go into the merits."

In this case, "the Board's further comments and the Director-General's further approval did not alter a whit the previous comments and decision.

Consideration 5
Extract:
The complainant invites the Tribunal to order the immediate execution of the judgment in question. The organisation pleads that the claim is irreceivable on the grounds that the complainant has failed to exhaust the internal means of redress. "This plea is unsound. Failure to execute a judgment does not constitute breach of the Staff Regulations or of the contract of employment or unjustifiable or unfair treatment and therefore cannot come under [the Staff Regulations]. What the complainant is asking for is neither more nor less than execution of a decision by the Tribunal on a matter within its competence, and the Tribunal may determine whether due effect has been given to that decision."

"A claim will not be receivable unless couched in [sufficiently precise] terms". The Tribunal is being asked to order an amendment of the Staff Regulations to prescribe special safeguards for the disabled such as their 'social resettlement" and protection against dismissal. The wording is vague, and the Tribunal cannot issue any order of that kind to the [organisation]. The claim is therefore irreceivable [...] Besides it is clearly devoid of merit."

The internal appeal lodged by the complainant was time-barred.

Consideration 3
Extract:
"The complainant argues that the unfair treatment lies in her being kept idle for so long. Accordingly the time limit for filing an appeal did not begin on the date on which her supervisor decided, while keeping her on her post, to give her no more work: the injury occurred only with the passage of time. Thus, although it was only after being kept idle for a considerable lapse of time that the complainant appealed to the Director-General, and then to the Tribunal, for compensation for the injury she alleged, her claims are not time-barred and her complaint is receivable."

"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."

The [organisation] retorts that insofar as they are appealing as such their complaints are irreceivable [...] the Tribunal will not rule on the plea. What the complainants seek is repayment of the sums they believe were unlawfully deducted from their salary as staff members, and they are therefore acting in their own name."

Summary
Extract:
The complainant's submission of an internal appeal was time-barred; for not having correctly followed the internal procedure, her complaint is irreceivable. The discovery of an allegedly unlawful decision does not affect the time limit for internal appeal. The only exception is where the organisation has misled the complainant in breach of good faith.

Consideration 4
Extract:
The organisation contends that the complainant, who knew that his contract had expired, had no reason to expect to be notified of its non-renewal. He should therefore have challenged the decision not to renew, which was implicit in the expiry of his appointment, in time. "To allow [the organisation's] plea would enable its competent officers to resolve to deal with such questions only if they thought fit. That would make for an increase in the number of claims dealt with ex gratia on the grounds that they had not been lodged on expiry of the appointment, and so administration would become arbitrary."
Keywords:
contract; fixed-term; internal appeal; non-renewal of contract; receivability of the complaint; start of time limit; time bar; time limit;
Consideration 5
Extract:
On questions of principle, the Tribunal holds that "a staff member whose fixed-term appointment has expired may not be declared out of time so long as his former employer has not informed him of the non-renewal. Normally, the non-renewal will be an explicit decision. Only where a staff member has expressly applied for renewal will rejection of his application be implied on the expiry of the time limits set".

Extract:
"Article VII(1) says that a complaint shall not be receivable unless the means of redress provided under the Staff Regulations have been exhausted. It is not enough just to make an internal appeal; it must be submitted in time. And there the complainant failed [...] to abide by the [...] time-limit. Since she did not follow the internal procedure correctly her complaint is irreceivable."
