Adrian Ham retires from NIA this month, to become a member of several advisory Boards, including the Washington based ICCF, and one associated with the nuclear industry - NICAB; also to spend a lot more time in France. Adrian has had three years as Chief Executive at NIA, after being Chief Economist at Nuclear Electric, and Director of overseas consultancy at British Energy, opening up the first contract in Kiev advising the Ukrainian Government on the creation of the energy giant 'Energoatom'. He also formed BE's first Canadian contacts.
Adrian was no stranger to politics nor to wider energy issues, having been Special Adviser to Chancellor of the Exchequer Denis Healey in the 1974 Labour Government, when world oil prices leapt 300% in twelve months. He also published a critical review of Whitehall mandarins 'Treasury Rules', and performed in a series of satirical revues at Labour Party conferences - the 'End of the Peers Shows'.
