In general, compensation programs endeavor to "extinguish, as far as possible, all the consequences of the illegal act and reestablish the situation which in all probability would have existed if that act had not been committed."[17] In many cases, this involves financial compensation or payouts to assist survivors.
Compensation can also be provided through the restitution of property that was wrongfully seized and the reallocation of economic resources.[24] For example, in cases where human rights abuses have caused physical or emotional injury, the provision of medical and psychological treatment will be appropriate.

One of the charms of this essay, in fact, is the writer's awareness that he is not going to change this organization, it's a bunch of Motor Vehicle 'state-lifer' types, and nobody is going to change that.
