Order 13268 of July 2, 2002, and Executive Order 13284 of January 23,

    Consistent with the determination in section 10 of Executive Order 
13224 that prior notice to persons determined to be subject to the

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.

John J. Sullivan,
Deputy Secretary of State.
