The Mission Appeals Tribunal (MAT) is an independent judicial body of second instance, working on non-permanent basis, established in order to adjudicate appeals lodged by civilians hired in NATO missions against an administrative review decision of the Mission Commander.
MAT judicial activities have started on 1 July 2022 and its first two judgments have been released in 2023. MAT convenes annually Plenary sessions with the goal to consider administrative matters and other issues concerning its judicial activity. The first Plenary session of MAT College of Judges has been held on 30-31 January 2023.
The second one is scheduled on 7 March 2024 and will be hosted at the premises of the National Research Council of Italy (Cnr-Iriss) in Via Guglielmo Sanfelice, 8 Naples, Italy.
