The court analysed the meaning of intermediary service of the Act. The definition of an intermediary service is as follows: âintermediary serviceâ means, subject to subsection (3) (b), any act other than the furnishing of advice, performed by a person for or on behalf of a client or product supplierâ.Does this constitute an intermediary service?â or âMust I be an FSP or representative?â. The judgment on 16 May 2013 in the Supreme Court of Appeal in Tristar Investments v The Chemical Industries National Provident Fund (455/12) [2013] ZASCA 59, provides welcome clarity on the issue.
1 Geometry and Materials. 2  The Tower is made exclusively of wrought iron, although steel was available at the time. Eiffel chose iron because steel was more expensive since it was a new development, and also because he was experienced and confident in iron design.
Conceived in 1884, construction of the tower began in 1887 and involved some 50 engineers, 100 iron workers, and 121 construction workers. It was completed on March 31, 1889, at a cost of 7,800,000 French gold francs. The main structure of the tower is composed of wrought-iron, coated (at present) with bronze paint. It is 324 metres (1,063 ft) in height, weighs a total of 10,000 tonnes (73 percent wrought-iron), and for 41 years it remained the tallest man-made structure in the world, until superceded by New York's Chrysler Building, designed by William van Alen (1883-1954), in 1930.
