Of the ex-combatants recruited into the Special Constabulary Force after the conflict, 800 were discharged in February 2003 due to an overpopulation of the force and lack of funding.[1] In conjunction, the UNDP operated workshops to effectively reintegrate discharged constables, a program that began in September 2002.
