matters. In this regard, the Court takes into account that all the said provisional measures were requested by the Inter-American Commission with regard to the same State, and although there may be differences as regards the legal representation of the different beneficiaries, it is also true that several representatives are common to all the beneficiaries. 5. Therefore, in accordance with the operative paragraphs of this Order, the State must present, as it has done previously (supra having seen paragraph 5), a single report in which it refers jointly to the implementation of the provisional measures in the matters of the Venezuelan penitentiary centers in which this Court has ordered that they be adopted. Also, the beneficiaries of the said measures or their representatives must present their observations on the said reports jointly in a single brief within four weeks of receiving them. Similarly, the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights must present its observations in a single brief within six week of receiving the State’s reports. THEREFORE: THE INTER-AMERICAN COURT OF HUMAN RIGHTS, in exercise of the authority conferred upon it by Article 63(2) of the American Convention on Human Rights and Articles 27 and 31 of the Court’s Rules of Procedure, DECIDES: 1. To order the joinder of the matters of the Monagas Detention Center (“La Pica”); the Capital Region Penitentiary Center Yare I and Yare II (Yare Prison); the Occidental Region Penitentiary Center (Uribana Prison); the Capital Detention Center El Rodeo I and El Rodeo II, and the Aragua Penitentiary Center “Tocorón Prison.” 2. To order that these joindered provisional measures shall hereafter be known as the “Matter of certain Venezuelan penitentiary centers.” 3. To require the State, following notification of this Order, to submit a single report every three months in which it specifically addresses the measures it is adopting to protect the life and personal integrity of the beneficiaries, in accordance with the provisions of the fifth considering paragraph of this Order. The beneficiaries of these measures or their representatives must present their observations on the said reports in a single brief within four weeks of receiving them. Similarly, the InterAmerican Commission on Human Rights must present its observations in a single brief within six weeks of receiving the State’s reports. 4. To require the Secretariat to notify this Order to the State of Venezuela, the Inter-American Commission, and the representatives of the beneficiaries. Diego García-Sayán President 3
