Ģ��ƵAT Held or Ģ��ƵDT Pronouncements

Ģ��ƵAT preliminarily rejected the Appellant��s request to present additional evidence. On the merits, Ģ��ƵAT held that the Appellant did not demonstrate that Ģ��ƵDT made any errors in finding that the Administration met its obligations to the Appellant as a permanent staff member under the applicable Staff Rules and administrative issuances. Ģ��ƵAT noted that the Appellant was given a three-month temporary appointment after her post was abolished and reasonable efforts were made by the Administration to try to find her a suitable post. Ģ��ƵAT held that there was no evidence to support the allegations of discrimination or any other improper purpose as the motivation behind the abolishment of her post and the creation of a new post as part of the reOrganisation of the office. Ģ��ƵAT held that there were no grounds to rescind the administrative decision to terminate her permanent appointment or award her any compensation. Ģ��ƵAT dismissed the appeal and affirmed the Ģ��ƵDT judgment.
