An official who, at his place of employment, is staying at a hotel because the accommodation provided for in Article 5 cannot yet be allocated to him or is no longer available to him or who, for reasons beyond his control, has not been able to take possession of his accommodation shall be reimbursed the hotel expenses of himself and his family on production of the hotel bills, after prior authorization by the appointing authority. He shall also receive half the daily allowance. The expenses referred to in the first and second subparagraphs shall be reimbursed subject to the limits laid down in Article 10 of Annex VII to the Staff Regulations, except where the appointing authority takes a special decision that there is a case of force majeure. Where hotel accommodation cannot be provided, the official shall be entitled to reimbursement of the actual cost of renting temporary accommodation, after prior approval by the appointing authority.
