The grid has been carefully devised to assist in establishing the clear space area around the national Coatof Arms and serves as a guide with which to establish the different sizes on various communication elements.

The clear space around the national Coat of Arms must always be 2XC. The spacing between the nationalCoat of Arms and the descriptor to the right must be 2XC. The primary descriptor (functional name ofdepartment e.g. water & forestry) is 15/8XC high. The secondary descriptor (word ‘Department’) is 11/8XChigh. The tertiary descriptor (full name of department e.g. Water Affairs and Forestry) is also 11/8XC high.The Republic of South Africa is 11/8XC high.

Above the line an ‘ampersand’ (&) symbol is used, whilst below the line an ‘and’ is used.
