                                 AN ACT

 
         To amend section 61h-6 of title 2, United States Code.

    Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the 
United States of America in Congress assembled,
That section 61h-6 of title 2; The Congress, Chapter 4--Officers and 
Employees of Senate and House of Representatives; United States Code, 
is amended to read as follows:
``Sec. 61h-6. Appointment of consultants by Majority Leader, Minority 
              Leader, Secretary of the Senate, and Legislative Counsel 
              of the Senate; compensation
    ``(a) The Majority Leader and the Minority Leader, are each 
authorized to appoint and fix the compensation of not more than four 
individual consultants, on a temporary or intermittent basis, at a 
daily rate of compensation not in excess of the per diem equivalent of 
the highest gross rate of annual compensation which may be paid to 
employees of a standing committee of the Senate. The Secretary of the 
Senate is authorized to appoint and fix the compensation of not more 
than two individual consultants, on a temporary or intermittent basis, 
at a daily rate of compensation not in excess of the per diem 
equivalent of the highest gross rate of annual compensation which may 
be paid to employees of a standing committee of the Senate. The 
Legislative Counsel of the Senate (subject to the approval of the 
President Pro Tempore) is authorized to appoint and fix the 
compensation of not more than two consultants, on a temporary or 
intermittent basis, at a daily rate of compensation not in excess of 
that specified in the first sentence of this section. The provisions of 
section 8344 of title 5 shall not apply to any individual serving in a 
position under this authority. Expenditures under this authority shall 
be paid from the contingent fund of the Senate upon vouchers approved 
by the President Pro Tempore, Majority Leader, Minority Leader, 
Secretary of the Senate, or Legislative Counsel of the Senate, as the 
case may be.
    ``(b) The Majority Leader, and the Minority Leader, in appointing 
individuals to consultant positions under authority of this section, 
may appoint one such individual to such position at an annual rate of 
compensation rather than at a daily rate of compensation, but such 
annual rate shall not be in excess of the highest gross rate of annual 
compensation which may be paid to employees of a standing committee of 
the Senate.''.

            Passed the Senate January 24 (legislative day, January 10), 
      1995.

            Attest:

                                                             Secretary.
