Is the R3 700 exemption for foreign dividends and interest still available for 2013 tax year?

Posted 5 July 2013

Over 65's have an exemption of R33000 on local interest earned. A portion of this exemption (R3 700) was allowed for foreign dividends and foreign interest in 2012 tax year. I am not sure if this still available in the 2013 tax year?
