Leader in Residence
Roelf Meyer
Roelf Meyer was intimately involved in negotiations on the settlement of the South African problem from 1989 to 1994, first as Deputy Minister of Constitutional Affairs and thereafter as Minister in which capacity he served as the National Party (NP) Government's chief negotiator. It was in this capacity that he negotiated the end of apartheid together with Cyril Ramaphosa, who was the chief negotiator of the African National Congress (ANC). It was these negotiations that resulted in the first democratic election in South Africa at the end of April 1994. After this election Meyer continued in the same portfolio of Constitutional Affairs in the Cabinet of former President Nelson Mandela until March 1996. After 21 years he resigned from active politics at the end of January 2000. During this period he was a Member of Parliament (since 1979), Deputy Minister for Law and Order and subsequently of Constitutional Development (December 1986 to August 1991) and Cabinet Minister August 1991 to March 1996). He is currently Chairman of the Civil Society Initiative in South Africa.
