Discussion | Tech Thursday | Calls for new 'repair' legislation for electronics

JOHANNESBURG - Pressure is mounting for South Africa to introduce 'right to repair' legislation. This will ensure less wastage and prevent environmental harm.

Organisations are now calling on government to ensure that manufacturers build products that are easier to repair.
