	South Africa District municipality - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		District municipalities in South Africa administer and make rules for a district, which includes more than one local municipality.
		The purpose of district municipalities and local municipalities sharing the responsibility for local government in their areas is to ensure that all communities, particularly disadvantaged communities, have equal access to resources and services.
		This will help some local municipalities who don't have the capacity (finances, facilities, staff or knowledge) to provide services to their communities.

		In these districts the principle of one man one allotment was strictly pursued, and succession was in practice by right of birth, although the government always reserved the power to seize an arable allotment once its registered user died or otherwise forfeited it.
