Ministry of Justice and Constitutional Affairs
Administers the Roman-Dutch courts and liaises with the Swazi National Courts.
What this authority does
Eswatini runs a genuinely dual system: Roman-Dutch courts headed by the Supreme Court, and a parallel Swazi National Court structure applying Swazi law and custom under the authority of the King as iNgwenyama. The 2005 Constitution preserves both, and political parties remain barred from contesting elections.
