About this statute

This article says the law sets rules for the organization and functioning of faith-based organizations. This article defines key terms used in the law. Certain organisations and ministries may set up headquarters and branches in Rwanda, but they must notify the Board in writing, and district-level branches need district authority authorization. Organisations, umbrellas, forums of umbrellas, and ministries have administrative and financial autonomy, but the Board may audit their finances and assets when necessary. Certain organizations and ministries must have statutes, and those statutes must not conflict with other laws.
