A CONCLUSION INASMUCH AS A MAJORITY REPORT WAS DRAWN UP, IT MUST BE CONCLUDED THAT THE PROCEDURE WAS PROPERLY CONDUCTED .
15 THE NEXT POINT TO EXAMINE IS THEREFORE WHETHER THE MAJORITY REPORT IS VITIATED BY DEFECTS WHICH RENDER IT INVALID . IN THAT CONNECTION IT MUST BE POINTED OUT THAT THE COURT' S JURISDICTION IS LIMITED TO ANNULLING THE DECISIONS OF A MEDICAL COMMITTEE WHICH ARE VITIATED BY ILLEGALITY INASMUCH AS THEY ARE BASED ON AN IRRELEVANT CONCLUSION . THAT WOULD BE THE CASE IF THE MEDICAL COMMITTEE ADOPTED AN ERRONEOUS VIEW OF THE CONCEPT OF "OCCUPATIONAL DISEASE" OR IF ITS REPORT DID NOT ESTABLISH A COMPREHENSIBLE LINK BETWEEN THE MEDICAL FINDINGS WHICH IT CONTAINS AND THE CONCLUSIONS WHICH IT DRAWS .
16 IT FOLLOWS THAT THE COURT HAS JURISDICTION TO CONSIDER WHETHER AN EXPERT, WHEN REFERRING TO "OCCUPATIONAL DISEASE" AND "ACCIDENT", HAS KEPT WITHIN THE LIMITS OF THE RELEVANT PROVISIONS .
17 IN THAT REGARD, IT MUST BE OBSERVED THAT IN THE CONCLUSIONS OF THEIR REPORT THE MAJORITY EXPERTS SET OUT ALL THE STATUTORY CRITERIA FOR DEFINING AN OCCUPATIONAL DISEASE AND AN ACCIDENT AND CONSIDER THEM UNFULFILLED IN THIS CASE . MORE PARTICULARLY, IT SHOULD BE POINTED OUT THAT IN THE MAJORITY REPORT REGARD WAS HAD TO THE VALUES LAID DOWN IN COUNCIL DIRECTIVE 80/836/EURATOM OF 15 JULY 1980 AMENDING THE DIRECTIVES LAYING DOWN THE BASIC SAFETY STANDARDS FOR THE HEALTH PROTECTION OF THE GENERAL PUBLIC AND WORKERS AGAINST THE DANGERS OF IONIZING RADIATION ( OFFICIAL JOURNAL 1980, L 246, P . 1 ). THE REPORT EXPRESSLY RULED OUT THE EXISTENCE OF AN OCCUPATIONAL DISEASE IN CATEGORY F 1 ( DISEASES DUE TO IONIZING RADIATION ) OR IN CATEGORY B 2 ( DERMATITIS CONTRACTED AT WORK FROM SUBSTANCES NOT MENTIONED ELSEWHERE ) ON THE GROUNDS THAT, IN THIS CASE, THERE WAS NO ACCIDENTAL EXPOSURE, THAT IS TO SAY NO UNFORESEEN AND UNINTENTIONAL EXPOSURE TO RADIATION WHEREBY ONE OF THE SPECIFIED DOSAGE LIMITS FOR EMPLOYEES EXPOSED TO RADIATION IS EXCEEDED . FURTHERMORE, THE CAUSE OF THE RASHES FOUND ON THE APPLICANT' S BODY IS DISCUSSED IN DETAIL IN THE REPORT; IT ALSO DEALS WITH THE QUESTION OF THE APPLICANT' S MENTAL WELL-BEING .
18 IT SHOULD BE ADDED THAT EVEN THE MINORITY REPORT, WHICH IN SUBSTANCE IS ACCEPTED BY THE APPLICANT, MERELY CONTAINS THE STATEMENT THAT SOMATIC SEQUELAE CANNOT BE DISCOUNTED, WHICH IS INSUFFICIENT TO SUPPORT THE CONCLUSION THAT AN ACCIDENT OR AN OCCUPATIONAL DISEASE WITHIN THE MEANING OF THE STAFF REGULATIONS HAS OCCURRED .
19 SINCE THE AUTHORS OF THE MAJORITY REPORT DID NOT THEREFORE PROCEED FROM ANY MISCONCEPTIONS AND DID NOT DRAW ANY MANIFESTLY WRONG CONCLUSIONS, THEIR REPORT MUST BE CONSIDERED VALID .
20 IT REMAINS TO CONSIDER WHETHER THE CONTESTED DECISION WAS A PROPER DECISION FOR THE PURPOSES OF ARTICLE 19 OF THE INSURANCE RULES . BEING EXPRESSLY BASED ON ARTICLE 23 OF THE INSURANCE RULES IT MUST BE REGARDED AS AN IMPLICIT REFUSAL TO RECOGNIZE THAT THE CONDITIONS FOR THE GRANT OF BENEFITS UNDER ARTICLE
