In the Matter of the Review of the
Designation of Real Irish Republican
Army and Other Aliases; As a Foreign
Terrorist Organization Pursuant to
Section 219 of the Immigration and
Nationality Act, as Amended
Based upon a review of the
Administrative Records assembled in
these matters pursuant to Section
219(a)(4)(C) of the Immigration and
Nationality Act, as amended (8 U.S.C.
1189(a)(4)(C)) (‘‘INA’’), and in
consultation with the Attorney General
and the Secretary of the Treasury, I
conclude that the circumstances that
were the basis for the 2008 decision to
maintain the designation of the
aforementioned organization as a
foreign terrorist organization has not
changed in such a manner as to warrant
revocation of the designation and that
the national security of the United
States does not warrant a revocation of
the designation.
Therefore, I hereby determine that the
designation of RIRA as foreign terrorist
organization, pursuant to Section 219 of
the INA (8 U.S.C. 1189), shall be
maintained.
This determination shall be published
in the Federal Register.
Dated:April 26, 2013.
John F. Kerry,
Secretary of State.
