Today, Rwandan Members of Parliament (MPs) met with their counterparts from the Joint Committee on Human Rights of the United Kingdom’s Parliament.
Rwandan MPs and their UK counterparts interacted on the implementation of the UK-Rwanda Migration Economic Development Partnership.
The UK and Rwanda agreed a Migration and Economic Development Partnership in April 2022. The asylum arrangement allows the UK to send people to Rwanda who would otherwise claim asylum in the UK and/or have made irregular journeys to the UK. Rwanda will either grant them asylum or permanent residence. (End)
