ActionSA wishes to extend our sincere condolences to the family, friends, and colleagues of James Selfe, a Member of Parliament whose career has spanned three decades and features a commendable track record of genuine dedication to strengthening our democracy and constitutional order.

Having been elected to Parliament in 1994, James Selfe participated in the Constitutional Assembly, contributing to the drafting of South Africa's Democratic Constitution. His contribution, dedication, and service to South Africa will always be remembered.

ActionSA honours his memory, which we believe serves as an inspiration for the vital role that Parliament plays in holding the Executive to account, a principle that James Selfe understood, respected, and ensured guided his work.
