There’s actually not much to comment on here, apart from to note that Finance and Staff matters have been causing concern in the ICANN Community, including from senior members of it and therefore the Commission is right to question matters. (One need only look at Lesley Cowley’s quizzing of soon to be ex-CEO Beckstrom to realise there is a bit of piscine odour about the staff situation!)

Developments in this area should be watched carefully.
