The Representation of Natives Act No 12 of 1936 (commenced 10 July) was legislation passed in South Africa which further reduced black rights at the time.The Cape province had a qualified franchise which had allowed a small number of blacks in the Cape to vote for the common roll (although not to sit in parliament) in terms of the Cape Qualified Franchise. The qualified franchise dated back to the pre-Union period, when the Cape was a separate British colony; it also excluded poorer white men. The 1936 Act removed blacks to a separate roll – and halted the right to run for office; other earlier legislation removed the qualifications imposed in the Cape on whites.

  • Der Representation of Natives Act, Act No. 12 / 1936 (deutsch: Eingeborenenwahlgesetz) war ein 1936 in der Südafrikanischen Union erlassenes Gesetz, durch dessen Wirkung im Land eine konsequente politische Trennung der Bevölkerung erzeugt wurde. Damit vollzog sich eine Veränderung des seit 80 Jahren bestehenden Wahlrechts für Schwarze (mit höherer Bildung) auf dem Gebiet der ehemaligen Kapkolonie, die zu einer erheblichen Einschränkung führte.

The 1936 Act removed blacks to a separate roll – and halted the right to run for office; other earlier legislation removed the qualifications imposed in the Cape on whites. With this act, the small black elite - most blacks never had the vote - were removed from the common rolls on which they had been able to register since 1854. Chiefs, local councils, urban advisory boards and election committees in all provinces were to elect four whites to the senate by a system of block voting. The act also created a Native Representative Council of six white officials, four nominated and twelve elected Africans. (en)
