This article lists the members of the National Assembly of South Africa during the 23rd South African Parliament, which sat between 1999 and 2004. Members were elected during the elections of 2 June 1999, South Africa's second under universal suffrage. The African National Congress (ANC) augmented its majority, winning a super-majority of 266 seats in the 400-seat legislature, and the Democratic Party (DP) superseded the defunct National Party as the official opposition.[1] The ANC's Thabo Mbeki was elected to his first term as President of South Africa.
On 14 June 1999, the Assembly re-elected Frene Ginwala as Speaker of the National Assembly and re-elected Baleka Mbete as Ginwala's deputy. Though Ginwala was elected unopposed, Mbete beat a challenge from Dene Smuts of the DP, who received 47 votes against Mbete's 326.[2]
