This is a list of members of the third North West Provincial Legislature as elected in the election of 14 April 2004. In that election, the African National Congress (ANC) maintained the majority it had held during the second legislature, holding all of its 27 seats, while the official opposition, the United Christian Democratic Party, retained its three seats.[1] The Freedom Front Plus retained its single seat. Thus the only change in the legislature's composition was the disappearance of the New National Party, which ceded its former seat to the Democratic Alliance.

When the legislature convened for the first time on 26 April 2004, the ANC's Edna Molewa was elected as the second Premier of the North West, succeeding Popo Molefe.[2][3] Thandi Modise was elected as Speaker of the North West Provincial Legislature.
