The Tribunal reviewed the present application and found that it was not receivable ratione temporis and ratione personae. In accordance with art. 8.4 of the Tribunal¡¯s Statute and art. 7.6 of its Rules of Procedure, an application shall not be receivable if it is filed more than three years after the applicant¡¯s receipt of the contested administrative decision. The Applicant clearly indicated in her application that the contested decision dated back to 2010 and, in such circumstances, her application was not receivable ratione temporis. Furthermore, the Tribunal observed that while the Applicant indicated in her application that she was a staff member of the Organization, she contested, in fact, a decision related to her status as a Consultant. However, pursuant to articles 2.1 and 3.1 of the Tribunal¡¯s Statute, the status of a staff member is a necessary condition for access to the Tribunal. The Tribunal therefore found that the Applicant had no standing to contest the alleged decision and that her application must also be denied on the grounds that it was not receivable ratione personae pursuant to art. 3.1 of the Tribunal¡¯s Statute.
