                               RESOLUTION


 
   Providing for consideration of the bill (H.R. 1670) to revise and 
     streamline the acquisition laws of the Federal Government, to 
 reorganize the mechanisms for resolving Federal procurement disputes, 
                        and for other purposes.
    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. 1670) to revise and 
streamline the acquisition laws of the Federal Government, to 
reorganize the mechanisms for resolving Federal procurement disputes, 
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 section 302(f) or 308(a) of the Congressional 
Budget Act of 1974 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 Committee on Government 
Reform and Oversight. 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 Committee on Government Reform and Oversight. The 
committee amendment in the nature of a substitute shall be considered 
by title rather than by section. The first two sections and 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 5(a) of rule XXI or section 302(f) of the Congressional Budget 
Act of 1974 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 postpone until a time during further consideration in the 
Committee of the Whole a request for a recorded vote on any amendment. 
The Chairman of the Committee of the Whole may reduce to not less than 
five minutes the time for voting by electronic device on any postponed 
question that immediately follows another vote by electronic device 
without intervening business: Provided, That the time for voting by 
electronic device on the first in any series of questions shall be not 
less than fifteen 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 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.
