The government is to formulate the IRR within ninety days of approval of the law, which was signed by President Benigno Aquino III on September 12, 2012.

That court negotiated the rules governing lawyers' access to their Guantanamo clients,few months ago the Justice Department sought to put new restrictions on attorney visits to prisoners whose cases had been denied or dismissed. 

Declaring the new rules would have restricted the number of lawyers and interpreters who could visit any given prisoner and put new restrictions and rules on what the lawyers could do with classified information learned from prisoners, including documents the lawyers written in their own,then the Lamberth told few of the prisoners were fluent in English or knowledge about U.S. law, and that they were held in an isolated location without the means to file legal challenges on their own otherwise who had lost their cases still had the right to file appeals or new challenges under laws that had been revised.
