Section 5. Administrative Structure. The Administrative Structure for carrying
out the comprehensive peace process shall be as follows:
C. GOVERNMENT PEACE NEGOTIATING PANELS. There shall be established
Government Peace Negotiating Panels (GPNPs) for negotiations with different rebel
groups, to be composed of a Chairman and four (4) members who shall be
appointed by the President as her official emissaries to conduct negotiations,
dialogues, and face-to-face discussions with rebel groups.
They shall report to the President, through the PAPP, on the conduct and progress of
their negotiations. The GPNPs shall each be provided technical support by a Panel
Secretariat under the direct control and supervision of the respective Panel
Chairman. They shall be authorized to hire consultants and to organize their own
Technical Committees to assist in the technical requirements for the negotiations.
Upon conclusion of a final peace agreement with any of the rebel groups, the
concerned GPNP shall be dissolved. Its Panel Secretariat shall be retained in the
Office of the Presidential Adviser on the Peace Process (OPAPP) for the purpose of
providing support for the monitoring of the implementation of the peace agreement.
