Judgment No. 2589
Decision
The complaint is dismissed.
Consideration 7
Extract:
It is [...] clear that the rules relating to due process, in particular, which must be respected scrupulously during the actual disciplinary proceedings, as the Tribunal points out in the judgments to which the complainant refers (see, for example, Judgment 2475), do not apply during the investigation of matters brought before an internal auditing body such as the OIOS. The terms of reference of the OIOS do specify that investigations shall respect the rights of staff members, but in this connection they establish precise rules which have been followed in this case.
