SA gets its first e-police station

Would be amazing if they can implemented this without being corrupted on some way
 
Its easier to "accidently" delete an electronic document than a paper document.

If the system is built correctly, then at least there should be an audit trail of who deleted. But the document is still gone. Unless there is a strict back-up process.

As stated in the other thread: step in the right direction.

But then a couple of years ago I HD the opportunity to see how one of the government departments' systems work before work started to completely replace it.

So here's hoping it was done properly. Wonder who did it though? Gijima?
