112TH CONGRESS REPORT " ! HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES 1st Session 112–75 

PROVIDING FOR CONSIDERATION OF THE BILL (H.R. 754) TO AUTHORIZE 

APPROPRIATIONS FOR FISCAL YEAR 2011 FOR INTELLIGENCE AND INTELLIGENCE-RELATED ACTIVITIES OF THE UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT, THE COMMUNITY MANAGEMENT ACCOUNT, AND THE CENTRAL 

INTELLIGENCE AGENCY RETIREMENT AND DISABILITY SYSTEM, AND 

FOR OTHER PURPOSES 

MAY 11, 2011.—Referred to the House Calendar and ordered to be printed 

Mr. SESSIONS, from the Committee on Rules, 

submitted the following 

R E P O R T 

[To accompany H. Res. 264] 

The Committee on Rules, having had under consideration House 

Resolution 264, 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. 754, the Intelligence Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2011, under a structured 

rule. The resolution provides one hour of general debate equally divided and controlled by the chair and ranking minority member of 

the Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence. The resolution 

waives all points of order against consideration of the bill. The resolution provides that the amendment in the nature of a substitute 

recommended by the Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence 

now printed in the bill shall be considered as an original bill for 

the purpose of amendment and shall be considered as read. The 

resolution waives all points of order against the committee amendment in the nature of a substitute. The resolution makes in order 

only those amendments printed in this report. Each such amendment may be offered only in the order printed in this report, may 

be offered only by a Member designated in this report, shall be considered as read, shall be debatable for the time specified in this report equally divided and controlled by the proponent and an opponent, shall not be subject to amendment, and shall not be subject 

to a demand for division of the question in the House or in the 

Committee of the Whole. All points of order against the amendments are waived. Finally, the resolution provides one motion to 

recommit with or without instructions.

EXPLANATION OF WAIVERS

Although the rule waives all points of order against consideration 

of the bill, the Committee is not aware of any points of order 

against its consideration. The waiver is prophylactic in nature. 

The resolution waives all points of order against the amendment 

in the nature of a substitute recommended by the Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence made in order as original text. The 

waiver of all points of order includes a waiver of clause 4 of rule 

XXI, which prohibits a bill or joint resolution carrying an appropriation from being reported by a committee not having jurisdiction 

to report appropriations. However, the amendment printed in this 

report numbered 1, to be offered by the Chairman of the Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, would strike the provision 

(Sec. 412) in violation of clause 4 of rule XXI. If the amendment 

is adopted, the measure will then comport with the rule. The waiver of all points of order also includes a waiver of clause 7 of rule 

XVI because the amendment in the nature of a substitute recommended by the Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence includes provisions that are not germane to the introduced bill. 

It is important to note that the estimate provided by the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) to the Permanent Select Committee 

on Intelligence and the Committee on the Budget is incomplete due 

to the fact that CBO is only permitted to score the unclassified portions of the bill. Because the estimate is incomplete, the Chairman 

of the Committee on the Budget is unable to accurately advise the 

Chair on budget related points of order. 

Although the resolution waives all points of order against the 

amendments printed in this report, the Committee is not aware of 

any points of order against the amendments and therefore the 

waiver is prophylactic in nature.
