UNDT/2012/094, Christensen
The Tribunal finds that the Salary case was never properly before the Tribunal and is not receivable. It is within the discretionary authority of the Secretary-General to reconsider whether the existence of an injury is attributable to the performance of official duties. In this case, the Secretary-General has refused to exercise that discretion. The Applicant’s claims in as far as they rely on art. 11 of Appendix D to the Staff Rules are therefore not receivable. With respect to all of the Applicant’s other claims including her claim for DSA and air ticket for her daughter’s travel in 2002, her claim for compensation arising from the late shipment of her property, the Tribunal concurs with the Respondent’s submissions that these claims are not receivable as the Applicant should have requested for Administrative review of the decisions denying her the payments in accordance with former staff rule 111.2(a). The Tribunal does not have the power to waive the time limits for requests for administrative review under the old internal justice system.
The Applicant contested a number of decisions regarding her Appendix D claim, salary and entitlements.
