Legislator summary

AI generated

The Administrative Court dismissed the appeal against the Social and Health Committee's decision to appoint two officials in a single election. The minority member argued that separate elections were required due to prior application procedures and eligibility criteria, but the majority held that a combined election was legally permissible. The court ruled that the committee had the discretion to conduct the election in one round, validating the appointment of the two candidates with the most votes.

Sosiaali- ja terveyslautakunta oli päättänyt nimetä

kaksi viranhaltijaa aluevastuisten viranhaltijoiden

tehtäviin, joita valitut hoitaisivat omiin virkoihinsa

kuuluvien tehtävien ohella. Lääninoikeus katsoi, että

lautakunta oli voinut toimittaa aluevastuisten viranhaltijoiden

valinnan samassa vaalitoimituksessa siten,

että valituiksi tulivat kaksi eniten ääniä saanutta henkilöä.

Äänestys 2-1.

Vähemmistöön jäänyt jäsen katsoi, että vaali olisi ollut

toimitettava virka kerrallaan, kun otettiin huomioon valintaa

edeltänyt hakumenettely ja kelpoisuusvaatimusten

asettaminen.
