Abstract
We present the status of our ongoing program at the Nordic Optical Telescope (NOT) to determine the host galaxy properties of the ROSAT - Green Bank (RGB) BL Lacertae objects. This sample is by far the largest BL Lac sample (127 objects) obtained from a single survey. We give a description of the sample and discuss first results based on ~ 60 objects.
