The House of Assembly (known in Afrikaans as the Volksraad, or "People's Council") was the lower house of the Parliament of South Africa from 1910 to 1981, the sole parliamentary chamber between 1981 and 1984, and latterly the white representative house of the Tricameral Parliament from 1984 to 1994, when it was replaced by the current National Assembly. Throughout its history, it was exclusively constituted of white members who were elected to office predominantly by white citizens, though until 1960 and 1970, respectively, some Black Africans and Coloureds in the Cape Province voted under a restricted form of suffrage.

rdfs:comment	De Volksraad (Afrikaans: Volksraad; Engels: House of Assembly, letterlijk Huis van Vergadering) was het lagerhuis van het Parlement van Zuid-Afrika van 1910-1981, de enige parlementaire kamer van 1981-1984 en de blanke volksvertegenwoordiging in het Driekamerparlement van 1984-1994, toen het werd vervangen door de Nationale Vergadering. Door de geschiedenis heen werd de Volksraad uitsluitende samengesteld uit blanke leden die werden gekozen door blanke kiezers, hoewel sommige zwarten en kleurlingen in de Kaapprovincie stemden bij de verkiezingen tot 1960 en 1970.

(en) Zgromadzenie Ludowe (ang. House of Assembly of South Africa, afr. Die Volksraad van Suid-Afrika) − nieistniejąca już izba niższa południowoafrykańskiego parlamentu, funkcjonująca w latach 1910-1994. Południowoafrykański, dwuizbowy parlament, którego wyższą izbą był Senat, powstał wraz z utworzeniem z czterech brytyjskich kolonii dominium. Zarówno w czasach zależności od Wielkiej Brytanii, jak i w okresie istnienia republiki, Zgromadzenie Ludowe składało się wyłącznie z białych reprezentantów, wybieranych przez białych wyborców. Jedynie przez część okresu jego istnienia w prowincjach Natal i Kraj Przylądkowy niewielka liczba przedstawicieli niebiałej większości miała możliwość oddawania głosu, jednak wyłącznie na białych kandydatów.
