In its decision (112) Da Tzu No. 2, issued on 1 March 2024, the Grand Chamber of the Supreme Administrative Court ruled that, in the event that an administrative agency issues an oral administrative decision without providing instructions on legal remedies, and the affected or interested party files an objection within one year of receiving legal notification of the decision, the objection is considered to have been filed within the statutory period. A minority of the judges expressed dissenting opinions on this matter. The debate was primarily focused on two pivotal issues, namely: (1) The question of whether the dispute resolution procedures set out in Chapter 6 of the Government Procurement Act should be considered a lex specialis regarding the instructions on legal remedies and their legal effects as stipulated in the Administrative Procedure Act. (2) The question of whether the absence of a requirement in the Administrative Procedure Act for administrative agencies to provide instructions on legal remedies when making oral administrative decisions represents a legal loophole is also addressed. The objective of this article is to examine these differing views from a legal methodology perspective in order to determine which position is more appropriate. |
