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 rec-
ommended by the Permanent Select Committee on Intel-
ligence now printed in the bill. The committee 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 the committee amendment
in the nature of a substitute for failure to comply with
clause 7 of rule XVI are waived. No amendment to the
committee in the nature of a substitute shall be in order
except those printed in the portion of the Congressional
Record designated for that purpose in clause 8 of rule
HRES 167 RH
XVIII and except pro forma amendments for the purpose
of debate. Each amendment so printed may be offered only
by the Member who caused it to be printed or his designee
and shall be considered as read. The chairman of the Com-
mittee of the Whole may: (1) postpone until a time during
further consideration in the Committee of the Whole a re-
quest for a recorded vote on any amendment; and (2) re-
duce to five minutes the minimum time for electronic vot-
ing on any postponed question that follows another elec-
tronic vote without intervening business, provided that the
minimum time for electronic voting on the first in any se-
ries of questions shall be 15 minutes. At the conclusion
of consideration of the bill for amendments 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 to
the committee amendment in the nature of a substitute.
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.
