Reform of the human rights system is a vital and significant challenge for government and society. The formulation of problems and the potential for reform in such a complex system must carefully balance all factors and the concerns and needs of all stakeholders.  Change must only be undertaken with full awareness of possible consequences. Many different changes have been suggested: it is difficult to determine which of these will truly maximize outcomes for the benefit of all.
