In the present commentary it is argued that GAL is not a new source of law, and cannot be confused with administrative law from international sources. In addition, it is considered that it entails the ruling of a global administrative action with direct effect on the people without mediation of national law. Moreover, it is stressed that it also can ground administrative action or at least serve as an international limit or parameter to international or national administrative action, and entails the existence of multi-level constitution and legitimacy and global ruling and therefore depends upon the existence of international functional public services or an international or transnational public interest.
