French term or phrase: ne pourra que conclure
This relates to a dispute over redundancies. I'm not sure how best to translate "ne pourra que" here - I considered "has no option but to".

Le Conseil ne pourra que conclure au débouté du demandeur pour les raisons de fait et de droit exposées ci-après.

Thank you
