REASONS FOR JUDGMENT OF THE COURT

(Delivered from the bench at Ottawa, Ontario, on April 25, 2007)

DÉCARY J.A.

[1]               We are of the opinion that Harrington J. (2006 FC 216) was correct in concluding that the “possible corrective measures” mentioned in the Directive on Recourse in Staffing issued by the Canada Revenue Agency do not include ordering that a person be appointed to a position within the Agency. Therefore, the “independent third party” exceeded its jurisdiction in ordering that the position in question be given to the appellant.

 


[2]               The appeal will be dismissed with costs.
