Competing human rights – new guidance for everyday challenges
From: Annual report 2012-2013 - Rights, Partners, Action!
In April 2012, the OHRC launched its Policy on competing human rights. This policy outlines steps that sectors, organizations and individuals can take to address everyday situations of competing rights and help to avoid the need for legal action. The policy may also give guidance to the HRTO and the courts to address cases where litigation cannot be avoided.
