Theft hampers Home Affairs computerisation
This emerged today during debate on Home Affairs Minister Nosiviwe Mapisa-Nqakula’s budget vote in the National Assembly.
She told MPs that of the 263 offices identified for computerisation in the 2005/06 financial year, 240 were completed.
"The department still continues to deal with the scourge of theft of equipment, and security requirements should always be fulfilled before computer equipment can be installed in offices.
"This has tended to affect the pace of installation," Mapisa-Nqakula said.
