Commission for the Protection of the Republic
From Wookieepedia, the Star Wars wiki.
- "It was the Commission for the Protection of the Republic, strutting little twerps who wanted firm government as long as it was imposed on lesser beings and not them."
- ―Captain Ordo Skirata[src]
The Commission for the Protection of the Republic (COMPOR) was a committee established during the Clone Wars.

[edit] History
A part of the Office of the Supreme Chancellor, its duty was to brainstorm ideas and reforms that could be implemented to ensure the continuation of the Galactic Republic during those troubled times. The vast majority of its suggestions included, in some form or another, strengthening the power of the new executive branch at the expense of the other parts of government. It also urged the deportation from Coruscant of beings from worlds that had joined with the Confederacy of Independent Systems. Amongst its sections was SAGroup, a chapter for the Republic youth.
At the near end of the Clone Wars, many COMPOR members joined the Republic Navy as fleet officers. One such officer, Ensign Luszgoti, had a confrontation with Captain Ordo Skirata, thus indicating that some non-clone officers highly disliked clone soldiers, or viewed clones, even clones that outranked them, as inferior to recruits and enlisted troops.
Mere days after the rise of the Galactic Empire, COMPOR was merged with the Imperial Security Bureau, an offshoot of the newly formed Imperial Intelligence, to create COMPNOR.[1]
