Abstract
In this response to Burt Neuborne\u27s Who\u27s Afraid of the Human Rights Commission, the author views Neuborne\u27s proposal as representing an inevitable shift in the Commission\u27s limited resources to more preventative measures in combating discrimination. This article argues that Neuborne\u27s approach sacrifices the interests of individual victims of discrimination by focusing Commission resources on employer-centered plans for rights discrimination. The article outlines six drawbacks of the Neuborne model, and concludes that more minor changes will allow a proper balance between allocating resources for post- and pre- event occurrences of discrimination
