ARCHIVES OF THE MULTI-PARTY NEGOTIATING PROCESS 1993 1. ADMINISTRATIVE OUTLINE 1.1 Introduction During the Convention for a Democratic South Africa (CODESA), I and II in 1991 and 1992, violence and intimidation continued to ravage the country. ANC_SACP_COSATU alliance suspended all the talks with the government and launched a three-month plan of mass action, which later was suspended due to economic reasons and the effect that it would cause on peace negotiations. In 1993, there was a general consensus that negotiations aimed at drawing up a new constitution must be resumed although bilateral talks between political groups differed, especially regarding the role of regional government in a new constitution. Multi-Party negotiating process was held in 1993 at the World Trade Centre in Johannesburg. It was pyramid in structure, with the Plenary at the top, followed by the Negotiating Forum, Negotiating Council and the Planning Committee. The Negotiating Council later formed seven Technical Committees. The Negotiating Council and the Planning Committee were at the heart of the Multi-party negotiating process.
