Question juridique clé
Whether the public-law recourse was admissible against the Geneva Council of State decree
Solution extraite
No direct public-law recourse lay against the decree because it was not validly published and, in substance, operated only as an internal administrative ordinance with sufficient ordinary remedies available against concrete decisions.
Motifs extraits
Without official publication the decree never acquired binding legislative force. Even if treated as an internal directive, it had merely reflex effects and its application could be challenged through a formal decision before the cantonal administrative court, so an exceptional direct constitutional complaint was unavailable.
