D. Rules (Summary of the issue raised by DESA Staff)
• In the words of a staff member: "UN managers have become expert at applying the 'letter of the law' but not the 'spirit of the law'. A legal expert can tell you that the spirit of the law has as much credibility and validity as the framework. The Department needs to honor the spirit of the law along with the specific procedural actions".
• Many staff feel that personal connections are somehow stronger than rules and that the interpretation of rules varies greatly according to the prevailing interests.
