I want to discuss the claim that the Cape Town city council is unusually large for a municipal council. It may be unusual internationally, but I don't think it's unusual within South Africa - considering that Johannesburg has 217 councillors and eThekwini has 200 - the number of councillors is of course directly proportional to population. - htonl (talk) 11:44, 15 March 2011 (UTC)Reply
I concur. It's a strange statement to make anyway - you wouldn't normally compare city councils to parliaments based solely on the number of members - councillors obviously get paid less, and MPs obviously have larger constituencies (in the systems where they actually have constituencies). — Gk sa (talk) 17:51, 17 April 2011 (UTC)Reply
