Application for suspension of action pending management evaluation in disciplinary matters: It is clear from a plain reading of article 2.2 of the Tribunal’s Statute, article 13.1 of its Rules of Procedure and staff rule 11.2 that the two former provisions apply only where management evaluation is required. In the instant case, the contested decision is a disciplinary measure which can be challenged before the Tribunal without first seeking management evaluation. Thus, the Tribunal cannot rely on these provisions to order the requested suspension of action pending management evaluation. Interim measures in disciplinary matters: It follows from article 10.2 of the Tribunal’s Statute and staff rule 9.6 that, where a staff member files an application before the Tribunal to challenge an administrative decision, he/she may seek an interim order from the Tribunal suspending the implementation of the contested decision. However, such suspension is explicitly excluded in cases of termination. In this case, the contested decision is a measure of termination within the meaning of staff rule 9.6, and the Applicant has not filed an application to challenge the merits of this decision.
