About this statute

This provision says the Order sets out the responsibilities, organisation, functioning, and members of environmental protection committees. Committees must carry out listed environmental responsibilities, raise public awareness, ensure environmental offenders are pursued by competent institutions, and oversee lower-level committees. The Committee at City of Kigali level must coordinate environmental protection and climate change activities and monitor compliance with environmental laws for projects in Kigali. The District-level Committee has specific duties on sanitation, renewable energy, protected areas, forests, land use, and climate-change monitoring. The Sector-level Committee has specific responsibilities to support waste bins, water use, tree nurseries, soil erosion control, and environmental and climate-change monitoring.
