the Central Intelligence Agency Retirement and Disabil-

HRES 420 RH
of the Whole House on the state of the Union for consider-
ation of the bill (H.R. 3694) to authorize appropriations
for fiscal year 1999 for intelligence and intelligence-relat-
ed activities of the United States Government, the Com-
munity 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 rec-
ommended by the Permanent Select Committee on Intel-
ligence 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 amend-
ment in the nature of a substitute for failure to comply
with clause 7 of rule XVI or clause 5(b) of rule XXI are

of a substitute shall be in order unless printed in the por-
tion of the Congressional Record designated for that pur-
pose 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 ques-
tions shall be 15 minutes. At the conclusion of consider-
ation 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 amend-
ment in the nature of a substitute made in order as origi-
nal text. The previous question shall be considered as or-
dered on the bill and amendments thereto to final passage
without intervening motion except one motion to recommit
with or without instructions.
