1 . AN UNAUTHORIZED DISCLOSURE OF THE DECISION OF A SELECTION BOARD DOES NOT CONSTITUTE A SUFFICIENT REASON FOR ANNULLING THAT DECISION IF IT IS NOT CAPABLE OF AFFECTING THE GUARANTEES AS TO THE REGULARITY OF THE PROCEEDINGS OF THE BOARD . IN ANY EVENT IF THE SECRECY IS ONLY VIOLATED AT A MOMENT WHEN THE DECISION OF THE BOARD HAS BEEN TAKEN , SUCH A FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH THE PROVISIONS OF THE STAFF REGULATIONS CANNOT THROW DOUBT ON THE REGULARITY OF THE DECISION .

2 . IN CONSIDERING WHETHER A CANDIDATE POSSESSES EXPERIENCE EQUIVALENT TO A UNIVERSITY DEGREE THE SELECTION BOARD MUST BASE ITS ASSESSMENT ON OBJECTIVE FACTS SUCH AS THE NATURE OF THE APPLICANT ' S DUTIES AND THE LENGTH OF TIME DURING WHICH HE HAS PERFORMED THEM .
