White roll[]

The following were the members elected on the white roll for the 20 seats in Parliament reserved for whites. In September 1987, having achieved the support of 75% of the House of Assembly as required under the Lancaster House Agreement, the constitution was amended to abolish the white roll constituencies. Twenty further members (including many of the former white MPs who were supportive of ZANU–PF) were co-opted onto the House of Assembly to replace them.
