NSC studies Haseb’s report

NSC studies Haseb’s report The Namibia Sports Commission is busy studying the report completed by the former head of finance, Walter Haseb.

Haseb, who resigned from the position earlier this month, was required to submit a report to the board before he leaves.

He has forfeited his December salary after opting to resign with immediate effect and not on 30 days’ notice.

His resignation came after he was moved back to his position of head of finance from acting chief administrator, where the board cited that they preferred him in a position to sort out the commission’s financial issues.

Of the instructions given, he was required to explain the pension monies that were deducted from the employees but not paid over.

According to the commission’s acting chief administrator Peter Wilson, Haseb has complied with what was required of him to do.

“He has given me a report just before he left and we are busy studying it and we will then discuss it during the next board meeting in January,” he said.

He mentioned that he thus far sorted out the pension issue but was now dealing with the medical aid issue where payments were also not made.

Wilson also mentioned that water bills at the commission have also been settled.

“So far I am just putting things in place and making sure that I pave the way for the incoming chief administrator,” he said.

Wilson’s contract acting in the position ends in January but he is hopeful that by February there will have full-time administrator appointed.

He indicated that so far interviews have been done and three candidates have been shortlisted.

“Three candidates have been shortlisted and are just waiting to receive the offer so hopefully by February we will have someone appointed,” he said.

Meanwhile the commission has three other vacant positions to fill, that of head of marketing, driver, and head of finance and administration.
