Delegates at the multiparty Convention for a Democratic South Africa (CODESA)  negotiation endorsed the Interim Constitution  according to which SA would have a Government of National Unity (GNU) for 5 years after its first democratic elections on 27 April 1994. This document was the final product of the amended draft issued in July 1993.
