Eleventh_Amendment_of_the_Constitution_of_South_Africa
The Eleventh Amendment of the Constitution of South Africa renamed the Northern Province to Limpopo, altered the procedure for intervention by the national government in a failing provincial government and intervention by a provincial government in a failing municipality, and expanded the powers of the provincial executive when it intervenes in a municipality.
The bill was passed by the National Assembly on 25 February 2003 with 305 votes in favour, more than the required two-thirds majority,[1] and by the National Council of Provinces on 25 March with all nine provinces in favour.[2] It was signed by President Thabo Mbeki on 9 April, and came into force on 11 July.
