[H. Res. 296 Engrossed in House (EH)]


                 In the House of Representatives, U.S.,

                                                     November 28, 2001.
    Resolved, That at any time after the adoption of this resolution the Speaker 
may, pursuant to clause 2(b) of rule XVIII, declare the House resolved into the 
Committee of the Whole House on the state of the Union for consideration of the 
bill (H.R. 3338) making appropriations for the Department of Defense for the 
fiscal year ending September 30, 2002, and for other purposes. The first reading 
of the bill shall be dispensed with. All points of order against consideration 
of the bill 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 Appropriations. After general debate the 
bill shall be considered for amendment under the five-minute rule. The amendment 
printed in the report of the Committee on Rules accompanying this resolution 
shall be considered as adopted in the House and in the Committee of the Whole. 
Points of order against provisions in the bill, as amended, for failure to 
comply with clause 2 of rule XXI are waived except as follows: ``to be derived 
from the Airport and Airway Trust Fund and'' on page 183, lines 24 and 25; ``to 
be derived from the Airport and Airway Trust Fund and'' on page 184, lines 7 and 
8; ``to be derived from the Highway Trust Fund and'' on page 184, lines 18 and 
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. 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 8 of rule XVIII. 
Amendments so printed shall be considered as read. During consideration of the 
bill, points of order against amendments for failure to comply with clause 2(e) 
of rule XXI are waived. At the conclusion of consideration of the bill for 
amendment the Committee shall rise and report the bill, as amended, 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.
