Meaning in Legal Terms

A quasi-judicial mechanism is an institutional body that has decision-making, advisory, or dispute resolution powers similar to a court or tribunal, but it is not a full statutory court of law.

In international law, such bodies operate under treaties, conventions, or cooperative agreements, and their decisions are respected by states and organizations due to their credibility, neutrality, and alignment with international norms.

The term “framework mechanism” refers to a structured system that can establish councils, commissions, or tribunals across multiple sectors (migration, trade, financial cooperation, human rights, etc.) to deal with disputes or governance issues in a non-statutory but authoritative way.

Why “Quasi-Judicial” and Not Judicial?

Judicial bodies (like the ICJ or national courts) derive authority from law or treaties and issue binding legal judgments.

Quasi-judicial bodies, however:

Issue advisory rulings, arbitral awards, or dispute resolutions.

Function with consent of states/organizations via MoUs or agreements.

Focus on specialized areas (migration law, trade disputes, financial recovery).

Operate within the principles of natural justice, fairness, and neutrality, without being a statutory court.

Examples in International Practice

ICSID (International Centre for Settlement of Investment Disputes) → Quasi-judicial arbitration for investment disputes.

WTO Dispute Settlement Body → Non-statutory but binding trade dispute mechanism.

UNCITRAL Arbitration Rules → Framework for global commercial arbitration.

ILO Administrative Tribunal → Quasi-judicial decisions on staff/employment disputes in UN agencies.

Application in ORASC Context

The Global Quasi-Judicial Framework Mechanism under Overseas Council – ORASC would:

Act as a non-statutory international mechanism.

Provide neutral platforms for migration, trade, finance, and civil security disputes.

Operate through Councils, Commissions, and Tribunals recognized by MoUs with intergovernmental and judicial bodies.

Function as a diplomatic and cooperative dispute resolution system, not a statutory court, but carrying moral, institutional, and international weight.
