The NNR is responsible for managing its resources so as to fulfill its statutory obligations effectively. For this reason the organisation embarks on rigorous performance monitoring activities to ensure that there is adequate capacity and that its resource allocation is commensurate with the radiation risks associated with a specific facility or activity. This graded approach enables the NNR to evaluate if the organisation is adequately structured to discharge its responsibilities and perform its functions effectively. The Chief Executive Officer appoints staff as are necessary to perform the work arising from or connected to the NNR’s functions in terms of the Act.
