Responding to a question in Parliament, the Assistant Minister of Local Government and Rural Development, Ms Botlogile Tshireletso said out of the 461 customary courts countrywide, 212 were computerised.

She said the ministry planned to connect the remaining 249 customary courts, incrementally over the remaining years of this plan period and into NDP 11.
