US Pushes Anew for UN Change in Review of Court Awards
The United States pressed to revive a plan for UN Assembly review of future decisions by the administrative tribunal that handles Secretariat personnel matters. Critics noted a $179,420 award to 11 American UN employees fired after a loyalty probe.

Senator Fulbright and others argued that a review principle exists in all legal systems as a basis for future action.
