Rwanda NMC’s stakeholders are institutions located in Rwanda which are directly or indirectly affected by NTBs, and which have influence or power over it, or have an interest in their successful or unsuccessful removal. NMC comprises government ministries and public institutions, private sector organizations, transports associations and some exporters and importers who are appointed to facilitate resolution of reported barriers.
The Chair of the NMC is the Ministry of Trade & Industry and the Co-Chair is the Private Sector Federation (PSF). This ensures appropriate leverage and decision making powers of the NMC as well as the adequate representation of the government and the private sector in the NMC management. The Chair and Co-chair are supported by the NMC Coordinator.
Members are divided into sub-committees responsible for (i) Customs and Border Procedures (ii) Transport and Infrastructure and (iii) Standards.
