We derive a necessary and a sufficient condition for Nash implementation
with a procedurally fair mechanism. Our result has a nice analogue with
the path-braking result of Maskin (1999), and therefore, it allows us
to give a simple characterization of those choice rules that are
implementable, but not in a procedurally fair way. This reveals the
constraints that insisting on procedural fairness impose on the
collective.
