The resignation has been welcomed by unions which considered Rob Adam’s appointment as the chairperson of Necsa irregular and illegal.

Adam, who replaced Dr Kelvin Kemm as chairperson at the insistence of former energy minister Jeff Radebe, resigned on Thursday saying his “full time work as MD of the South African Radio Astronomy Observatory means that I am unable to give the Necsa role the attention it deserves.”

According to Moneyweb, there are people in the company who believe that governance issues presented in an internal document are behind Adam’s resignation. The document also details that the turnaround strategy to lay off 400 workers was submitted to the department of energy without Necsa’s executive committee being consulted and in violation of Section 189 of the Labour Relations Act. This section of the Act says that workers and unions must be consulted if any retrenchments are considered.
