Key legal question
Whether the appeal was admissible despite being filed only by the union and not by the full referendum committee or its member organizations.
Extracted holding
No. Only the referendum committee or the legal entities composing it were directly affected and entitled to complain; the union alone lacked standing.
Extracted reasoning
The funding request had been made on behalf of the committee. The appellant did not show that it acted for the other member organizations, and no joint appeal or power of attorney was produced.
