About this statute

This article ratifies the African Charter on decentralisation, local governance, and local development, and makes it fully effective. The Prime Minister, the Minister of Local Government, and the Minister of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation are responsible for implementing this Order. The provision says the text was drafted in English and states that the Charter covers decentralisation, local governance, and local development. This Order takes effect on the date it is published in the Official Gazette of the Republic of Rwanda. State parties must enact domestic laws recognising levels of government, local governments have power to manage administration and finances, boundaries must be changed according to law, and local governments must be consulted on certain policies, laws, programmes, or projects.
