Icasa appoints acting chairperson
Councillor Dr Charley Lewis has been appointed as acting chairperson of the Independent Communications Authority of South Africa (Icasa) from July 16 until April 3, 2023, or until a chairperson is appointed.
This follows the resignation, on June 8, of outgoing chairperson Dr Keabetswe Modimoeng, whose last day in office is July 15.
“The appointment of the acting chairperson is informed by the provisions of section 5(2) of the Icasa Act, which provides that, in the absence of the chairperson, the remaining Councillors must, from their number, elect an acting chairperson, who, while he or she acts, may perform all the functions of the chairperson,” Icasa said in a statement.
Lewis has extensive experience across the field of information and communication technology sector policy and regulation, ranging from telecommunications to broadcasting.
His knowledge and expertise cover a wide array of key areas including universal access and service, consumer protection, statistics collation and analysis, spectrum management and the Fourth Industrial Revolution.
