This is a list of members of the New South Wales Legislative Council from 1843 to 1851.[1] The 1843 Electoral Act prescribed 36 members, 24 to be elected, 6 appointed by virtue of their office (Colonial Secretary, Colonial Treasurer, Auditor-General, Attorney General, Commander of the forces and Collector of Customs)[2] and 6 nominated. The appointments and elections were for five year terms and thus occurred in 1843, and 1848.[3] The Speaker was Alexander Macleay until 19 May 1846 and then Charles Nicholson. The parliament was dissolved on 30 June 1851 as a result of the 1851 Electoral Act which increased the number of members in the Council to 54 (18 to be appointed and 36 elected).
