We have adopted the district health system as a way of decentralising the delivery of primary healthcare services, throughout the country to effect equity not only between provinces but also within provinces. Given our desire to link health service delivery to effective local governance, the health district boundaries have been made coterminous with local Government boundaries.

The feasibility and practical implications of Afrikaner Councils (Cultural Councils) also need some further investigation.

To be sure, the elections of 1994 ushered in democracy; but true participatory democracy can not be established through one election alone. A major lesson of the 1994 elections is that it is impossible to conduct a sound election without a voters' roll. The timeframe for the elections of 1999 has always been very tight, but the IEC's preparations for the 1999 elections are on track. [highlighted result]
