Two vacancies for the Northern District in the Legislative Council had remained unfilled following the deaths of John Lewis on 25 August 1923 and John George Bice on 9 November 1923. Both MLCs were not due to be up for re-election in 1924, and their seats were filled at the election in addition to the two Northern District seats that would normally have been contested.

House of Assembly Sitting members are shown in bold text. Successful candidates are marked with an asterisk.
