Paragraph text
The Committee considers that the term "redress" in article 14 encompasses the concepts of "effective remedy" and "reparation". The comprehensive reparative concept therefore entails restitution, compensation, rehabilitation, satisfaction and guarantees of non-repetition and refers to the full scope of measures required to redress violations under the Convention.
