This list provides an overview of all members of the People's Chamber of the GDR in the 4th legislative period (1963–1967).




Composition


In the 1963 East German general election, according to official information, 99.95% of the voters voted for the proposal of the National Front of the German Democratic Republic.

The election did not influence the strength of the factions. Their size was predetermined. Through a new electoral law, the number of deputy mandates was increased to 500. The VdgB no longer formed a faction.
