1 The two MLCs for Northern District in the previous parliament whose terms were not due to expire until 1927, Sir John George Bice and John Lewis, both of the Liberal Federation, had both died in the second half of 1923. Their seats were filled simultaneously with the 1924 elections for the other class of seats, with four members instead of the usual two being elected, and the third and fourth-placed candidates, William George Mills and Percy Blesing, being elected for a half-term.[1]
