[From the U.S. Government Publishing Office]
[H. Res. 420 Engrossed in House (EH)]

                 In the House of Representatives, U.S.,

                                                           May 7, 1998.
    Resolved, That at any time after the adoption of this resolution the Speaker 
may, pursuant to clause 1(b) of rule XXIII, declare the House resolved into the 
Committee of the Whole House on the state of the Union for consideration of the 
bill (H.R. 3694) to authorize appropriations for fiscal year 1999 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. The first 
reading of the bill shall be dispensed with. Points of order against 
consideration of the bill for failure to comply with clause 2(l)(6) of rule XI 
are waived. General debate shall be confined to the bill and shall not exceed 
one hour equally divided and controlled by the chairman and ranking minority 
member of the Permanent Select Committee on intelligence. After general debate 
the bill shall be considered for amendment under the five-minute rule. It shall 
be in order to consider as an original bill for the purpose of amendment under 
the five-minute rule the amendment in the nature of a substitute recommended by 
the Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence now printed in the bill, modified 
by striking section 401 (and redesignating succeeding sections accordingly). 
That amendment in the nature of a substitute shall be considered by title rather 
than by section. Each title shall be considered as read. Points of order against 
that amendment in the nature of a substitute for failure to comply with clause 7 
of rule XVI or clause 5(b) of rule XXI are waived. No amendment to that 
amendment in the nature of a substitute shall be in order unless printed in the 
portion of the Congressional Record designated for that purpose in clause 6 of 
rule XXIII. Printed amendments shall be considered as read. The Chairman of the 
Committee of the Whole may: (1) postpone until a time during further 
consideration in the Committee of the Whole a request for a recorded vote on any 
amendment; and (2) reduce to five minutes the minimum time for electronic voting 
on any postponed question that follows another electronic vote without 
intervening business, provided that the minimum time for electronic voting on 
the first in any series of questions shall be 15 minutes. At the conclusion of 
consideration of the bill for amendment the Committee shall rise and report the 
bill to the House with such amendments as may have been adopted. Any Member may 
demand a separate vote in the House on any amendment adopted in the Committee of 
the Whole to the bill or the amendment in the nature of a substitute made in 
order as original text. The previous question shall be considered as ordered on 
the bill and amendments thereto to final passage without intervening motion 
except one motion to recommit with or without instructions.
            Attest:

                                                                          Clerk.
