The South Africa Act decided that Dutch and English were the official languages. Afrikaans did not extist at those times. Afrikaans became a seperate language from Dutch in 1925 (officially). The Dutch was the official language of the Union of South-Africa till the end of the union in 1961. In 1961 the new Republic replaced Dutch for Afrikaans. Dutch and Afrikaans were synonims till 1983.
