Andrew Fourie (born 15 March 1944),[1] commonly known as André Fourie, is a retired South African politician who represented the National Party in the National Assembly during the first democratic Parliament from 1994 to 1999. He was elected in the 1994 general election[2] and served on the Constitutional Committee that negotiated the 1996 South African Constitution.[3] He was also the leader of the NP's Northern Province branch.[4]

The Mail & Guardian described Fourie as "one of Parliament's less popular members".[5] He stood for re-election in 1999, ranked first on the New National Party's Northern Province party list,[1] but he was not re-elected.

During apartheid, Fourie was Minister of Regional and Land Affairs in the cabinet of President F. W. de Klerk.[6]
