The Secretary General has a role to see that there is balance in the boards. He has a role to see that the composition of the boards consists of people with balancing skills. Presumably, if people are appointed or if the board is very weighted in one way - if it goes in a way that looks, dare I say, ultra-political and particularly a matter of skills - would the Secretary General put his hand up and say "Stop"?
