French term or phrase: saisi par l’effet dévolutif
Philosphy of political economics: distinguishing the regulator's role from the judge's role.

roughly translated, we're at "Even if the judge oversees the regulator's decisions and is *saisi par l’effet dévolutif*, the judge is still not a regulator".

Ideas?

and has full power to hear [the appeal]


Explanation:
The judge does not act as a regulator him/herself, but the regulator's judgement can still go to him/her for appeal.
Another way of putting it is that the judge has full appeal jurisdiction

Peer comments on this answer (and responses from the answerer)
agree  Peter Shortall: Sort of, but to be precise, "full" really applies to "appeal" here and not "power". The judge has authority to deal with *all aspects* of the matter/decision at issue. See the Council of Europe's French-English Legal Dictionary (F H S Bridge).
