ENGLISH ABSTRACT: This work takes the South African Constitution and compares it to the Constitutions
of Australia and Canada. It then reviews the affirmative action laws, with special
reference to pertaining to women of those countries. The assumption is made that
the Constitution seems to be modelled on the Constitutions of Australia and Canada,
especially the discrimination clauses. It follows that the South African ,model will
parallel or closely resemble the affirmative action laws of both countries.
Subsequently, if these laws are compatible with those of the Cape Town City
Council, what plans are envisaged by this Local Authority to improve the position
of women within their employ; taking both the incumbent and prospective
employees.
