"All our demands were accepted," Salim Abdallah, a member of the Sunni-based Islamic Party, told Agence-France Presse.
Sunni representatives on the committee tasked with drafting a new constitution suspended participation in the talks in protest at Tuesday's murder of two of their colleagues.
The 15 Sunni Arabs now on the committee had demanded, among other things, that the government give them better security and order a full investigation into the murder of their two colleagues.
The boycott threatened to derail efforts to reach a deal on the constitution in time for parliament to vote on the draft by Aug 15, a deadline agreed to earlier this year.
