Since 1991, a <a href="/wiki/Ceasefire" title="Ceasefire">ceasefire</a> has been in place, accepted by both parties with the understanding that the UN would organize a referendum on independence. The 1991 referendum plan was stalled, however, due to disagreements on voter eligibility. Morocco demanded the inclusion of all people now living in the territory, including all Moroccan settlers. Following the 1975 <a href="/wiki/Green_March" title="Green March">Green March</a>, the Moroccan state has sponsored <a href="/wiki/Category:Settlement_schemes" title="Category:Settlement schemes">settlement schemes</a> enticing thousands of Moroccans to move into <a href="/wiki/Southern_Provinces" title="Southern Provinces">the Moroccan-occupied part of Western Sahara</a> (80% of the territory). By 2015, it was estimated that Moroccan settlers made up at least two-thirds of the <a href="/wiki/Demographics_of_Western_Sahara" title="Demographics of Western Sahara">500,000 inhabitants</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The Polisario Front insisted on inclusion of only found in the 1974 final Spanish census and their descendants; the 1974 census had been mentioned as the basis of voter lists in the 1991 agreement. Specialized <a href="/wiki/Minurso" class="mw-redirect" title="Minurso">Minurso</a> identification teams eventually found in favor of some 80,000 voters deemed to be indigenous to the territory. That number corresponded quite closely to the Spanish census of 75,000 persons, which caused Morocco to launch appeals against the voter list on behalf of over 100,000 rejected applicants from the Moroccan side. This stalled the process, and by the late 1990s, Morocco had begun declaring the referendum a "dead option." </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Baker_I_and_II">Baker I and II</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Baker_Plan&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Baker I and II"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The first draft of the plan, called <b>Baker I</b> or the <b>Framework Agreement</b>, was circulated by the UN special envoy <a href="/wiki/James_Baker" title="James Baker">James Baker</a> in 2000, but never presented formally to the Security Council. Although based on Baker's proposals, it was drafted by a Morocco-sponsored legal team.<sup id="cite_ref-Miguel_2-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Miguel-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> It offered the people of Western Sahara autonomy within the Moroccan state.

In this referendum, the entire present-day population of Western Sahara would participate, including people who had migrated from or been settled by Morocco post-1975, something which Polisario had so far refused. On the other hand, a provision that the interim local government (the Western Sahara Authority) would be elected only by a restricted voters' list (those identified as original inhabitants of the territory by <a href="/wiki/Minurso" class="mw-redirect" title="Minurso">MINURSO</a>) alienated Morocco. After Morocco had voiced early objections to Baker II, the Polisario front reluctantly accepted the plan as a basis for negotiations. In July 2003, the UN Security Council endorsed the plan, something that it had not done with Baker's first draft, and unanimously called for the parties to implement it. Morocco, however, then rejected the plan, saying that it would no longer agree to any referendum that included independence as an option. </p><p>After this, Baker resigned in protest, the second UN envoy to Western Sahara to do so. He indicated that given the irreconcilable positions of the parties and the Security Council's refusal to enforcing a solution over the objections of either party, there no longer appeared to be a feasible way to implement the 1991 <a href="/wiki/Settlement_Plan" title="Settlement Plan">Settlement Plan</a> or to reach another compromise solution. While the Polisario, anxious to have a strong mediator with US backing in charge of the UN process, deplored his resignation, Moroccan officials viewed it in a positive light; foreign minister Benaissa publicly called the resignation a result of "the tenacity of Moroccan diplomacy".<sup id="cite_ref-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Status_of_the_Baker_Plan">Status of the Baker Plan</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Baker_Plan&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: Status of the Baker Plan"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Since early 2005, the UN <a href="/wiki/Secretary_General" class="mw-redirect" title="Secretary General">Secretary General</a> has not referred to the plan in his reports, and by now it seems largely dead.
