Rwanda will not align its budget calendar with donors’

Rwanda and her development partners have said that the country is not mulling upon a shift in the budget calendar after successfully aligning to the East African Community (EAC) financial year, in contrast to media reports that EAC states are set to align their financial year calendars with major donors’. Media reports in Kenya recently indicated that EAC States of Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania, Rwanda and Burundi are set for a major review of their financial year calendars following pressure from major donors.
