ORDER

COLLEEN KOTELLY, District Judge

To ensure that the Guantanamo Review Task Force operating pursuant to Executive Order No. 13,492 has not made any recommendations — and the Review Panel in connection with the same has made no decisions — that would render unnecessary or otherwise inefficient the further expenditure of judicial and party resources in this matter, it is, this 15th day of June, 2009, hereby

ORDERED that Respondents' counsel shall have an affirmative obligation to ascertain whether the Guantanamo Review Task Force has made any recommendations regarding the disposition of Petitioners and, if it has, to notify the Court of the same. If a recommendation regarding the disposition of Petitioners has been made, Respondents' counsel shall also have an affirmative obligation to ascertain whether the Review Panel has made any decisions in connection with the recommendations and, if so, to notify the Court with the results of such decisions; it is further

ORDERED that the obligations imposed on Respondents' counsel pursuant to this Order shall be immediate and ongoing.

SO ORDERED.
