29812 Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 99 / Monday, May 23, 2011 / Notices 

such a finding to the Associate 

Commissioner of the Office of 

International Programs. Under that 

authority, the Associate Commissioner 

of the Office of International Programs 

has approved a finding that St. Vincent 

and the Grenadines, beginning 

December 1, 2009, has a social 

insurance system of general application 

which: 

(a) Pays periodic benefits, or the 

actuarial equivalent thereof, on account 

of old age, retirement, or death; and 

(b) Permits United States citizens who 

are not citizens of St. Vincent and the 

Grenadines to receive such benefits, or 

their actuarial equivalent, at the full rate 

without qualification or restriction 

while outside St. Vincent and the 

Grenadines. 

Accordingly, it is hereby determined 

and found that St. Vincent and the 

Grenadines has in effect, beginning 

December 1, 2009, a social insurance 

system which meets the requirements of 

section 202(t)(2) of the Social Security 

Act (42 U.S.C. 402(t)(2). 

St. Vincent and the Grenadines 

became an independent nation on 

October 27, 1979. At that time, it was 

determined that St. Vincent and the 

Grenadines did not have a pension 

system that met the requirements of 

section 202(t)(2) of the Social Security 

Act. The country’s provident system did 

not provide for the payment of periodic 

benefits as required under section 

202(t)(2)(A). Notice appeared in the 

Federal Register on March 12, 1982. 

Based on the 1981 determination of 

record, citizens of St. Vincent and the 

Grenadines cannot meet the exception 

provided under section 202(t)(2) of the 

Social Security Act. However, they have 

been afforded the limited exceptions 

provided under section 202(t)(4) of the 

Act. 

In 1986, St. Vincent and the 

Grenadines instituted a social insurance 

system that became operational in 1987. 

The system provides old-age, disability, 

and survivor’s benefits, as well as other 

types of social insurance. Information 

recently obtained from St. Vincent and 

the Grenadines’ National Insurance 

Institute contains detailed information 

on the country’s social insurance system 

and the coverage of its labor force. This 

information required a new 

determination under the section 

202(t)(2) provisions.

In the Matter of the Designation of 

Army of Islam, aka Jaish al-Islam, aka 

Jaysh al-Islam; as a Specially 

Designated Global Terrorist Pursuant 

to Section 1(b) of Executive Order 

13224, as Amended 

Acting under the authority of and in 

accordance with section 1(b) of 

Executive Order 13224 of September 23, 

2001, as amended by Executive Order 

13268 of July 2, 2002, and Executive 

Order 13284 of January 23, 2003, I 

hereby determine that the organization 

known as Army of Islam, also known as 

Jaish al-Islam, also known as Jaysh alIslam, has committed, or poses a 

significant risk of committing, acts of 

terrorism that threaten the security of 

U.S. nationals or the national security, 

foreign policy, or economy of the United 

States. 

Consistent with the determination in 

section 10 of Executive Order 13224 that 

‘‘prior notice to persons determined to 

be subject to the Order who might have 

a constitutional presence in the United 

States would render ineffectual the 

blocking and other measures authorized 

in the Order because of the ability to 

transfer funds instantaneously,’’ I 

determine that no prior notice needs to 

be provided to any person subject to this 

determination who might have a 

constitutional presence in the United 

States, because to do so would render 

ineffectual the measures authorized in 

the Order. 

This notice shall be published in the 

Federal Register. 

Dated: May 9, 2011.

In the Matter of the Designation of

Based upon a review of the

Therefore, I hereby designate the 

aforementioned organization and its 

aliases as a Foreign Terrorist 

Organization pursuant to section 219 of
