Does iOS 4.3 support ARC

I tried googling but i was unable to locate the Apples Documentation where they say that ARC - automatic reference counting supports for iOS 4.3. Can someone tell me if this is true ? if so can you post me a link to apples documentation where it says so.

Though ARC is in the new features list of iOS 5, apparently it is enabled by the compiler and that capability became 'switched on' for iOS 4 at the same time the updated compiler for iOS 5 was released.

I was provided this general clarification from Apple DTS. Cheers,

Transitioning to ARC:

ARC is supported in Xcode 4.2 for Mac OS X v10.6 and v10.7 (64-bit applications) and for iOS 4 and iOS 5. Weak references are not supported in Mac OS X v10.6 and iOS 4.
