Question juridique clé
Whether refusal to inspect the hearing protocol, hear the parties and witness doctors violated the right to be heard / Art. 6 ECHR
Solution extraite
No; Art. 6 ECHR guarantees a public hearing, not the right to have evidence taken in the form requested, and the refusal to hear witnesses was permissible because the medical evidence was already documented and comprehensive.
Motifs extraits
The physicians had already given written reports and expert opinions; the health status and its impact on work ability are established by expert assessment, not by witness testimony. Anticipatory evidentiary appreciation was permissible.
