unagreed
Still being debated
Unagreed describes something that has not been settled or accepted by the relevant parties.
It most often modifies terms, conditions, or points in a negotiation: Several items on the contract remain unagreed.
The word emphasizes that consensus or formal acceptance is still lacking, distinguishing it from disputed, which implies active disagreement rather than simply the absence of agreement.
