                         EXPLANATION OF WAIVERS

    The waiver of all points of order against consideration of 
H.R. 3340 includes a waiver of clause 3(e)(1) of rule XIII 
(``Ramseyer''), requiring a committee report accompanying a 
bill amending or repealing statutes to show, by typographical 
device, parts of statute affected.
    Although the resolution waives all points of order against 
provisions in H.R. 3340, as amended, the Committee is not aware 
of any points of order. The waiver is prophylactic in nature.
    Although the resolution waives all points of order against 
the amendment to H.R. 3340 printed in part A of this report, 
the Committee is not aware of any points of order. The waiver 
is prophylactic in nature.

H.R. 3791 includes a waiver of clause 3(e)(1) of rule XIII 
(``Ramseyer''), requiring a committee report accompanying a 
bill amending or repealing statutes to show, by typographical

the amendment to H.R. 3791 printed in part B of this report, 
the Committee is not aware of any points of order. The waiver 
is prophylactic in nature.
    The waivers of clause 3(e)(1) of rule XIII are provided 
because the submissions provided by the Committee on Financial 
Services were insufficient to meet the standards established by 
the rule in its current form. The Committee on Rules continues 
to work with the House Office of Legislative Counsel and 
committees to determine the steps necessary to comply with the 
updated rule.
