Sport, Arts and Culture Minister Nathi Mthethwa says he has received a formal report confirming the resignation of the entire board of Cricket South Africa (CSA) on Monday.<\/p>\n
This follows the Acting President Beresford Williams alongside Angelo Carolissen, John Mogodi, Donovan May, Tebogo Siko and Dheven Dharmalingam, who quit on Sunday.<\/p>\n
\u201cAfter the Members\u2019 Council had deliberated and resolved that to best serve the interest of cricket in South Africa, the entire board should resign \u2013 which they did. All independent and non-independent directors have now resigned,\u201d CSA tweeted on Monday.<\/p>\n
The organisation said all resignations were with immediate effect except for three members, Zola Thamae, John Mogodi and Donovan May, who will remain as directors until the interim board structure has been appointed to ensure continuity and stability.<\/p>\n
According to the department\u2019s statement on Wednesday, Mthethwa has also received communication from CSA relating to his invitation to argue their case on why he should not proceed to intervene in their affairs.<\/p>\n
\u201cTo this end, consultative meetings with the CSA Members\u2019 Council, SASCOC and the South African Cricketers Association (SACA) were held throughout the course of the day, yesterday,\u201d the statement read.<\/p>\n
The meetings with South African Sports Confederation and Olympic Committee (SASCOC) and SACA were intended to share the outcomes of the meeting with CSA for keeping key roleplayers abreast of the latest developments, the department explained.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe meeting with the Members\u2019 Council of CSA was constructive and the Minister expressed his appreciation of their leadership.\u201d<\/p>\n
The department said the next step is to finalise details of an interim board and conclude on a list of names.<\/p>\n
The Minister is said to announce further details by the end of this week. \u2013 SAnews.gov.za<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Sport, Arts and Culture Minister Nathi Mthethwa says he has received a formal report confirming the resignation of the entire board of Cricket South Africa (CSA) on Monday.
