African National Congress/Inkatha Freedom Party Agreement

29 January 1991

The Parties agreed to terms regarding the final cessation of violence and normalisation of the relationships between the two organisations, with the goal of establishing terms for a united, non-racial and democratic South Africa. Agreed upon terms included: an end to political violence, a commitment to political tolerance and freedom of political activity, encouraging the free use of public facilities such as schools  (in particular, facilities established for recreation and communal activities) regardless of political affiliation, acknowledging the peace-keeping role of security forces which requires forsaking political bias, appropriate training, respect and, lastly, the essential expedition of reconstruction and development programmes to reduce further potential violence.
