Dispute Resolution Committee – 1992

In accordance of the agreement, the National Commission for the Consolidation of the Peace (COPAZ) was formally instituted on 1 February 1992 comprising 10 members–two members each from the FMLN and the government and rest of the members from other political parties. The COPAZ was responsible to arbitrate disagreements that might arise from the implementation of the accord. Nevertheless, the COPAZ did not initially play as important a role as envisioned in the agreements.¹
