  Considerations 5 and 7

  Extract:

  The complainant submits that being a town councillor did not amount to misconduct. FAO Staff Regulation 301.017 provides: "Any staff member who becomes a candidate for a public office of a political character shall resign from the Organization." The reason for the rule is that an international civil servant, "though entitled to hold his own political views, must stand aloof from demonstrations of adherence to a political party. His holding of elective political office is misconduct as defined by the rules [...] and is sufficient reason for dismissal."

  Consideration (H)

  Extract:

  "In [...] establishing the entire freedom of conscience recognised to international officials in respect of both their philosophical convictions and their political opinions, the Regulations impose on them the duty to abstain from all acts capable of being interpreted as associating them with propaganda or militant proselytism in any sense whatever [...]. This abstention is rigorously imposed on them by the overriding interest of the international organisation to which they owe their loyalty and devotion."
