Paragraph text
The Special Rapporteur notes the importance of monitoring progress in ensuring progressive realization of the right to health of older persons using indicators and benchmarks as part of the right to health framework. General comment No. 14 identifies the failure of States to monitor the realization of the right to health at the national level, as well as the resulting insufficient or misallocated expenditure, as examples of violations of the State's obligations (E/C.12/2000/4, para. 52).
