Administrative decision: The Tribunal held that although Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵIFEM/Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵDP subsequently took a decision to process the Applicant¡¯s separation from service in 2012, the Tribunal concluded that this was not an appealable administrative decision in accordance with article 2.1 of the Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵDT Statute in that the Applicant no longer had a contract of employment with the Organization because he resigned from service in May 2008.

The Tribunal noted that the rebuttal process was still ongoing and that no administrative decision had yet been taken; it further found that the Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵFPA Rebuttal Policy was a regulatory instrument which was not of individual application and did not carry direct legal consequences on the Applicant; hence, these matters of the application were found to be irreceivable.
