About this statute

This article says the law sets out the Commission’s powers, structure, and how it works. The Commission is an independent, permanent national institution with legal personality and administrative and financial autonomy, and it must collaborate with the ministry responsible for genocide memory. The Commission’s headquarters is in Kigali, and it may be moved elsewhere in Rwanda if necessary. It may also set up branches elsewhere in the country if necessary, with approval by an Order of the Prime Minister. The Commission has a set of mission functions related to genocide prevention, remembrance, survivor support, research, coordination, and cooperation. The Commission has power to do necessary activities to carry out its mission, including going to court, owning property, and signing contracts.
