This is the eighth update of the half-yearly report, Unfinished Business, designed to assist the international community in monitoring change in South Africa. The original report was issued in 1990, a turning point in South Africa's history, and was circulated to the Frontline States, the Organization of African Unity, the Commonwealth Committee of Foreign Ministers on Southern Africa, the European Community, the US Congress and the United Nations.
