The portfolio committee on correctional services has raised concerns about staffing levels and conditions at Thohoyandou Correctional Centre following its first oversight visit of the year in Limpopo.
The committee began its 2026 oversight programme in the province on Tuesday, citing Limpopos limited number of correctional facilities as the reason for prioritising the region.
Chairperson Kgomotso Ramolobeng said the committee intends to visit all facilities in the province as part of its mandate to oversee the department of correctional services DCS.
