   Mrs. Myrick, from the Committee on Rules, submitted the following

                              R E P O R T

                       [To accompany H. Res. 296]

    The Committee on Rules, having had under consideration 
House Resolution 296, by a nonrecord vote, report the same to 
the House with the recommendation that the resolution be 
adopted.

                summary of provisions of the resolution

    The resolution provides for consideration of H.R. 3338, the 
Department of Defense Appropriations Act, 2002, under an open 
rule. The rule provides one hour of general debate divided 
equally between the chairman and ranking minority member of the 
Committee on Appropriations. The rule waives all points of 
order against consideration of the bill and provides that the 
bill shall be considered for amendment by paragraph.
    The rule provides that the amendment printed in this report 
shall be considered as adopted. The rule waives points of order 
against provisions in the bill, as amended, for failure to 
comply with clause 2 of rule XXI (prohibiting unauthorized or 
legislative provisions in a general appropriations bill or 
prohibiting reappropriations in a general appropriations bill), 
except as specified in the rule. The rule further waives points 
of order during consideration of the bill against amendments 
for failure to comply with clause 2(e) of rule XXI (prohibiting 
nonemergency designated amendments to be offered to an 
appropriations bill containing an emergency designation).
    The rule authorizes the Chairman of the Committee of the 
Whole to accord priority in recognition to Members who have 
preprinted their amendments in the Congressional Record. 
Finally, the rule provides one motion to recommit with or 
without instructions.
    The waiver of all points of order against consideration of 
the bill includes a waiver of clause 4(c) of rule XIII 
(requiring the three-day availability of printed hearings on a 
general appropriations bill), which is necessary because the 
printed hearings are not yet available and the bill may be 
considered on the floor as early as Wednesday, November 28, 
2001. The waiver also includes a waiver of section 306 of the 
Congressional Budget Act (prohibiting consideration of 
legislation within the Budget Committee's jurisdiction, unless 
reported by the Budget Committee) because the bill includes a 
provision that falls within the jurisdiction of the Budget 
Committee that has not be reported by that Committee.
    The waiver of clause 2 of rule XXI is necessary because 
there are several unauthorized and legislative provisions in 
the bill, which are listed in the report accompaying H.R. 3338 
(H. Rept. 107-298). The description of provisions relating to 
transfers of funds and descriptions of provisions constituting 
legislation on an appropriations bill and unauthorized 
provisions can also be found in the report.
