BILLING CODE P 

DEPARTMENT OF STATE 

[Public Notice 8975] 

In the Matter of the Review of the 

Designation of Palestinian Islamic 

Jihad as a Foreign Terrorist 

Organization Pursuant to Section 219 

of the Immigration and Nationality Act 

Based upon a review of the 

Administrative Record assembled in 

this matter pursuant to Section 

219(a)(4)(C) and (b) of the Immigration 

and Nationality Act, as amended (8 

U.S.C. 1189(a)(4)(C), (b)) (‘‘INA’’), and in 

consultation with the Attorney General 

and the Secretary of the Treasury, the 

Secretary of State concludes that the 

circumstances that were the basis for the 

2008 decision to maintain the 

designation of the aforementioned 

organization as a foreign terrorist 

organization have 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 

of Palestinian Islamic Jihad. 

Therefore, the Secretary of State 

hereby determines that the designation 

of the aforementioned organization as a 

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: December 5, 2014.

DEPARTMENT OF STATE 

[Public Notice 8976] 

U.S. Department of State Advisory 

Committee on Private International 

Law (ACPIL): Public Meeting on the 

Hague Trusts Convention 

The Office of the Assistant Legal 

Adviser for Private International Law in 

the Department of State gives notice of 

a public meeting to discuss the 

Convention on the Law Applicable to 

Trusts and on Their Recognition, which 

was done at The Hague on July 1, 1985 

(hereinafter ‘‘Hague Trusts Convention’’ 

or ‘‘Convention’’). The public meeting 

will take place on Wednesday, January 

21, 2015, from 10:30 a.m. until 12:30 

p.m. EST. This is not a meeting of the 

full Advisory Committee. 

The purpose of the public meeting is 

to assess the current level of interest 

among domestic stakeholders in the 

Hague Trusts Convention. The 

Convention was signed on behalf of the 

United States on June 13, 1988, but the 

United States is not a party. Eleven 

countries, in whole or in part, are 

parties to the Convention, including 

most common-law jurisdictions and a 

small number of civil-law countries in 

Europe. 

The Office of the Assistant Legal 

Adviser for Private International Law is 

considering whether U.S. ratification of 

the Convention would be beneficial, as 

part of a more general initiative to try 

to address the domestic implementation 

of private international law treaties. For 

example, it would be useful to learn of 

the types of issues that may be 

confronted by those persons involved in 

handling trusts that have cross-border 

aspects, and the potential impact that 

the Convention would have on these 

issues. 

Time and Place: The meeting will 

take place from 10:30 a.m. until 12:30 

p.m. EST on January 21, in Room 240, 

South Building, State Department 

Annex 4, Washington, DC 20037. 

Participants should plan to arrive at the 

Navy Hill gate on the west side of 23rd 

Street NW., at the intersection of 23rd 

Street NW., and D Street NW., by 10:00 

a.m. for visitor screening. If you are 

unable to attend the public meeting and 

would like to participate from a remote 

location, teleconferencing will be 

available. Those who cannot attend but 

wish to comment are welcome to do so 

by email to John Kim at kimmjj@

state.gov. 

Public Participation: This meeting is

the building is strictly controlled. For
