The Corporation is responsible to the Minister for Tourism, Environment and Communications.

UniSwa has been connected since December 1996 through a 64 Kbps analog to UniNet South Africa via Vets University in Johannesburg, South Africa.
Plans exist to fiberlink all the major departments.
UniSwa experienced multiple connectivity problems which were attributed to the line quality and to the modems, and efforts to solve these had failed. The workshop has been highly instrumental in solving these problems and sharing expertise in the technology. There are currently 2 Internet Service Providers in Swaziland with points of presence in Mbabane and Manzini.
