There are different models of Charters of Rights. Many of the Charters overseas focus on civil and political rights, rather than access to health care, education and housing. Many people believe that it would be pointless to create a Human Rights Charter without including all the fundamental human rights.
In England and New Zealand, the Charters of Rights allow for individuals to seek remedies for breaches of protected rights. This is necessary to ensure that the human rights of disadvantaged people are not forgotten.
