No NHRI can monitor and report on every aspect of a country’s human rights situation every year. Most do not. They identify the rights that are of most concern in the country and concentrate on monitoring those either yearly or progressively. Alternatively, they may develop a multi-year schedule for monitoring rights so that all rights are examined, but only over a number of years.
