Recommendation 1

1 Paragraph: 17

The HRA enables us to argue for our rights in British courts.

Conclusion
The HRA enables us to argue for our rights in British courts. Relative to population size, the UK has the lowest number of claims brought against it of all Member States at the European Court of Human Rights. Of those claims that are brought, only a tiny fraction lead to an adverse finding against the UK.
