The challenges to be faced in the establishment
of a new municipal system in South Africa are great.
As part of its contribution to that process, Statistics South Africa has created a facility through which
publically available information on municipalities may
be shared. These MUNICIPAL PROFILES are easy to use,
providing spatial and attribute information on each of
the newly established municipalities.
The Board hopes that the information provided will be
of use to municipalities as they develop their IDPs,
to government as it targets funding and resources and
to those requiring information on our new municipal system.
The statistics part of the data contained in these Municipal
Profiles comes from the Statistics South Africa ©Census
1996 and Census 2001 databases. The Board hopes that
these data and information will spur users to make available
further data and information sources and allow us to
build a knowledge-based municipal system. |
