The delimitation of constituencies for the Union House of Assembly under the South Africa Act

Abstract

dc:description.abstract

The National Convention assembled at Durban on 12th October, 1908, to frame some sort or federation or union. The ideas the delegates took with them to the Convention were necessarily conditioned to a large extent by existing practices in the four colonies whose varying historical backgrounds revealed two approaches to the problem or the delimitation of constituencies, as between the Cape and Natal on the one hand and the Transvaal and the Orange'River Colony on the other.
