This is a list of members of the second KwaZulu-Natal Legislature, as elected in the election of 2 June 1999. The Inkatha Freedom Party (IFP) lost its majority in the legislature but retained a plurality, holding 34 seats in the 80-seat legislature. It formed a coalition government with the second-largest party, the African National Congress (ANC), which won 32 seats. Also represented were the Democratic Party, with seven seats; the New National Party, with three seats; the Minority Front, with two seats; and the United Democratic Movement and African Christian Democratic Party, with one seat apiece. The United Democratic Movement was a new entrant to the legislature, while the Pan Africanist Congress lost its representation.
After the election, the first sitting of the legislature was postponed to allow the parties to enter into negotiations over the formation of a government. At the first sitting, held on 18 June 1999, members were sworn in to their seats and re-elected Lionel Mtshali as Premier of KwaZulu-Natal. He defeated the opposition candidate, the Democratic Party's Roger Burrows, with 67 votes to Burrows's eight; the ANC had withdrawn the nomination of its own candidate, Sbu Ndebele, in favour of joining a coalition with the IFP. The ANC was therefore represented in Mtshali's Executive Council. The IFP's Bonga Mdletshe was re-elected as Speaker of the KwaZulu-Natal Legislature, and the ANC's Willies Mchunu was re-elected as his deputy.
