This Gazette is published in terms of the 2010 Division of Revenue Act (Act No.1 of 2010), as amended by the Division of Revenue Amendment Act (Act No. 15 of 2010), and provides information on additional allocations and adjustments to existing allocations to provinces in the 2010/11 financial year.
