9 European Convention (Article 35(1))31 on Human Rights should be noted; moreover, the differences and functional realities between the two systems of protection must be considered, since the Inter-American System has a Commission which acts as an initial instance, which is the channel through which the Convention gives the individual the right to move forward with an initial impetus that gets the wheels spinning before the international system of protection of human rights, a procedure that must be exhausted. 32 The dynamics and reality of the operation of the Inter-American Commission has meant that, to date, relatively few cases before the Inter-American Tribunal continue to be filed. 29. In conclusion, in accordance with Article 46(1)(a) of the American Convention, which provides that “[a]dmission by the Commission of a petition […] shall be subject to the following requirement[…] that the remedies under domestic law have been pursued and exhausted,” it is relevant to consider that the initial petition, if it is not manifestly inadmissible at the time of the preliminary assessment, it may be subject to the objections of the parties, including the exhaustion of domestic remedies (and at all times the procedural equality and adequate defense must be respected); thus the exhaustion of those remedies must be verified and updated in a definitive manner up until the Commission renders a decision, within a reasonable period, on the admissibility of the petition, that is, when the Report on Admissibility is issued or when declared inadmissible.
