reflected in the measures implemented; rather Guatemala must inform the beneficiaries or their representatives, as well as this Court, of the said results in particular, and also indicate the measures it will adopt based on these results, before adopting them. Moreover, the Court recalls that these measures were granted because of the threats received by members of the FAFG in relation to the Foundation’s work identifying and recovering mortal remains.10 It therefore urges the State to bear in mind the observations of the representatives and the Commission as regards taking into consideration in the said assessments the type of work performed by the beneficiaries. Therefore, the Court requests the State, in its next report on the implementation of these measures, to present pertinent information on the said risk assessments, as well as the specific, adequate and sufficient measures and means of protection that have been implemented in keeping with these assessments. 19. In relation to the representatives’ request to lift these measures with regard to specific individuals who no longer work for the Foundation, as well as to “extend them” to others who currently form part of its work team (supra considering paragraph 11), the Court observes that neither the State nor the Commission referred to this request by the representatives. 20. Regarding the individuals for whom the representatives request the lifting of these measures, in view of the lack of objection by the parties, and as it has previously in relation to this matter,11 the Court admits and finds it appropriate to lift the provisional measures granted in favor of the 23 beneficiaries who no longer work for the FAFG (supra considering paragraph 11). 21. However, with regard to the expansion of the provisional measures requested by the representatives to the current employees of the FAFG who did not work at the said organization in 2006 when the measures were granted, the Court finds it pertinent to recall that reading Article 63(2) of the American Convention together with Article 27(2) of the Court’s Rules of Procedure reveals that the Court may order the adoption of provisional measures in matters not yet submitted to its consideration at the request of the Commission. In this regard, it reiterates that, when processing these matters, it is for the Inter-American Commission to explain to the Court the universe of beneficiaries of the provisional measures adopted at its request,12 so that, in the absence of an express request from the Commission, the Court cannot expand the protection of the provisional measures ordered in this matter.13 Thus, in keeping with the provisions of the Convention and the Rules of Procedure that regulate the adoption of provisional measures (supra considering paragraph 1), the request for expansion made by the representatives cannot be considered, because it was not submitted by the Inter-American Commission.
