    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. 1701) to amend the Consumer Credit Protection Act to assure 
meaningful disclosures of the terms of rental-purchase agreements, including 
disclosures of all costs to consumers under such agreements, to provide certain 
substantive rights to consumers under such agreements, 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 one hour, with 50 minutes equally 
divided and controlled by the chairman and ranking minority member of the 
Committee on Financial Services and 10 minutes equally divided and controlled by 
the chairman and ranking minority member of the Committee on the Judiciary. 
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 Financial Services, as amended by the 
amendment recommended by the Committee on the Judiciary, now printed in the 
bill. The committee amendment in the nature of a substitute shall be considered 
as read. No amendment to the committee amendment in the nature of a substitute 
shall be in order except those printed in the report of the Committee on Rules 
accompanying this resolution. Each such amendment may be offered only in the 
order printed in the report, may be offered only by a Member designated in the

in the report equally divided and controlled by the proponent and an opponent, 
shall not be subject to amendment, 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 such amendments are waived. 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.
            Attest:

                                                                          Clerk.
