The Minister of Human Settlements is the housing minister in the Cabinet of South Africa. Known as the Minister of Housing until May 2009,[2] the minister has political responsibility for the Department of Human Settlements.

Between May 2019 and August 2021, the Department of Human Settlements was conjoined to the Department of Water and Sanitation under the Minister of Human Settlements, Water and Sanitation, Lindiwe Sisulu.[3] The merger was reversed when President Cyril Ramaphosa restored responsibility for water and sanitation to an independent Minister of Water and Sanitation in his second cabinet.[4]
