The administrative court dismissed the appeal against the municipal association's board decision to grant a paid leave of absence to a senior physician. The board argued that the appointment was a matter of internal discretion regarding how to resolve organizational issues within the association's budget. The court held that without clear legal grounds for applying the public official act law, the decision fell within the board's reasonable discretion and was not subject to administrative review.

Kuntayhtymän yhtymähallituksen päätöksellä on hyväksytty johtavan ylilääkärin kanssa neuvoteltu sopimus, jonka mukaan johtavalle ylilääkärille myönnetään kahden vuoden palkallinen virkavapaa siten, että virkasuhde päättyy virkavapauden päättyessä. Sopimuksesta on aiheutunut kuntayhtymälle, jonka päätöksentekovuoden kokonaisbudjetti on ollut 22 000 000 euroa, yhteensä 263 477,51 euron kustannukset.

Tilanteessa, jossa hallinto-oikeudessa esitetyn selvityksen perusteella ei ole ollut ilmeisiä perusteita kunnallisesta viranhaltijasta annetun lain 35 §:n säännösten soveltamiseen, kysymys siitä, olisiko kuntayhtymässä vallinneet ongelmat tullut ratkaista jollakin muulla tavoin, on tarkoituksenmukaisuuskysymys, joka on ollut yhtymähallituksen harkinnassa. Päätökseen ei tältä osin ole voinut hakea muutosta kunnallisvalituksin.
