Republic of South Africa Constitution Act No. 110, 1983 is an original South African government publication containing the text of the constitutional legislation that introduced a new constitutional framework for the Republic of South Africa during the final decade of apartheid. Published in Pretoria by the Department of Foreign Affairs and Information in October 1983, this 93-page softcover volume is an important primary-source document relating to South African political, constitutional and legal history.
Act No. 110 of 1983 introduced what became widely known as the 1983 Constitution or Tricameral Constitution. This Republic of South Africa Constitution Act was assented to on 22 September 1983 and introduced a new constitutional structure incorporating three parliamentary chambers: the House of Assembly, House of Representatives and House of Delegates. The constitution subsequently came into operation in 1984 and remained part of South Africa’s constitutional framework until the transition to the Interim Constitution in 1994.
Republic of South Africa Constitution Act includes the text of the Act together with an explanatory memorandum and a cross-reference index, making it particularly useful for researchers studying South African constitutional development, apartheid-era government, political history and legal history. Google Books records the contents as beginning with the Act, followed by the explanatory memorandum from page 57 and cross-reference index from page 81.
An interesting piece of South African political ephemera and Africana, this original 1983 government issue Republic of South Africa Constitution Act has particular relevance for collectors of historical legislation, constitutional documents and primary-source material relating to twentieth-century South Africa.
