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its majority, winning a super-majority of 266 seats in the 400-seat legislature, and the Democratic Party (DP) superseded the defunct National Party as the official opposition.^[1] The ANC's Thabo Mbeki was elected to his first term as President of South Africa.
