[From the U.S. Government Publishing Office]
[H. Res. 564 Engrossed in House (EH)]

                 In the House of Representatives, U.S.,

                                                       October 2, 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. 4274) making appropriations for the Departments of Labor, Health and 
Human Services, and Education, and related agencies, for the fiscal year ending 
September 30, 1999, and for other purposes. The first reading of the bill shall 
be dispensed with. General debate shall be confined to the bill and shall not 
exceed 90 minutes equally divided and controlled by the chairman and ranking 
minority member of the Committee on Appropriations. After general debate the 
bill shall be considered for amendment under the five-minute rule. Points of 
order against provisions in the bill for failure to comply with clause 2 or 6 of 
rule XXI are waived except as follows: beginning with ``: Provided'' on page 41, 
line 9, through line 19; page 95, line 18, through page 109, line 19. Where 
points of order are waived against part of a paragraph, points of order against 
a provision in another part of such paragraph may be made only against such 
provision and not against the entire paragraph. The amendments printed in the 
report of the Committee on Rules accompanying this resolution may be offered 
only by a Member designated in the report and only at the appropriate point in 
the reading of the bill, shall be considered as read, shall be debatable for the 
time specified in the report equally divided and controlled by the proponent and 
an opponent, shall not be subject to amendment except as specified in the 
report, 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 printed in the report are waived. During consideration of the bill 
for amendment, the Chairman of the Committee of the Whole may accord priority in 
recognition on the basis of whether the Member offering an amendment has caused 
it to be printed in the portion of the Congressional Record designated for that 
purpose in clause 6 of rule XXIII. Amendments so printed 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. 
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.
