The recent increase in the creation of individual complaint mechanisms for individuals or groups who claimes to have been violated their rights clearly proves that there has been put a great effort to protect human rights through such mechanisms under relevant covenants. By means of this direct communication procedures individuals are provided with a greater ability to access to the human rights committees under the covenant. Particularly, U.N. human rights treaties provide direct acsess to the relevant committee and bring their action before the committee. The general provisions and admisibility rules are regarded very similar to the European Court of Human Rights (ECOHR) and other international courts. However, there have been stil problems in terms of human rights protection via individual complaint mechanism. The main challenge is that the enforcement of committee decisions are upon the will of the State Party as these committees are not judicial organs. While some other sanctions or ways can be found in the international affairs area, the state parties are not seem reluctant to enforce committee decisions.
