Considerations 2-3
Extract:
The complainant argues that the impugned decision was ultra vires. The organization says that it was at the Director-General's instructions that the leader of the personnel division notified the decision to the complainant and that as a matter of good faith any decision on personnel management should be deemed to have been taken by the competent authority. The organization argues that the leader of the personnel division enjoyed an implied delegation of authority. "Such a broad statement of principle is unsound. [...] There is no telling [...] who actually made the decision in this case. The text cites no delegation of authority to sign; the only reference to the decision is impersonal and raises no presumption whatever of such delegation."

Considerations 2-3
Extract:
The United Nations Secretary-General and the Director-General of the FAO delegated authority to the Executive Director of the World Food Programme (WFP) to apply and interpret the FAO Staff Regulations and Staff Rules. Under Regulation 14(j) of the General Rules of the WFP any special rules the Executive Director might propose must be approved by the UN Secretary-General and the Director-General of the FAO. The complainant contends that as the provisions of the new personnel policy implemented by the Executive Director never got the required approval they are not special rules at all and do not therefore apply to him. The Tribunal holds to the contrary that Regulation 14(j) does give the provisions the force of special rules: there is no specific form their approval must take and the competent authorities have not disapproved of them.

Summary
Extract:
Paragraph 315.323 of the FAO Manual, under which the Director of personnel of the FAO is competent to take decisions to withhold within-grade salary increments, was not complied with, and there is no evidence that the person who took the decision - the Director of external relations and general services for the World Food Programme - had been validly delegated to do so.

Consideration 18
Extract:
"A change in the conditions of remuneration is not an ordinary administrative matter; it is something which the Director-General is expected to consider and decide himself. In the absence of [words to that effect] it is not therefore to be supposed that the power to amend [rules] is one which the Director-General can delegate. [The relevant article] specifies that in individual cases the application of the Staff Regulations may be delegated, but there is no similar provision in respect of the making of general rules."

Consideration 16
Extract:
"[I]t does not in the least follow that because a director confers upon one of his subordinates a limited authority in certain matters, that subordinate is thereby raised hierarchically and entitled to exact all the respect which is due to a superior."

Consideration 16
Extract:
"The Tribunal will assume, without deciding the question, that it is within the competence of a division director to delegate his authority in certain matters to one of the officers in his division. But if that is to be done, clear words must be used which leave the other officers in no doubt that one who is hierarchically their equal is being invested with the right to command."

Considerations
Extract:
If the signatory to the contract of employment had authority from the organization, the complainant could be held to be employed by the organization. "Authority is a clear and precise legal conception and if it cannot be found to exist it is not permissible to take refuge in imprecise expressions, such as that the credit union [which employs the complainant] was a body "within the framework of [the organization]". Accordingly, the complainant not being employed by [the organization], and so not one of its staff members, the Tribunal lacks jurisdiction".
