New senate to prioritise research

Senate president, Dr Jean Damascene Ntawukuriryayo, has disclosed that his team intends to have research as part of its major priorities.  The new senate, that is yet to commence business, is composed of elected and appointed lawmakers but has so far established standing committees.  “The priorities are well defined within our constitution, but we also intend to put more emphasis on conducting research work,” Ntawukuriryayo said.
