    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. 1361) to improve the disaster relief programs of 
the Small Business Administration, and for other purposes. The first reading of

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 Small Business. After general debate the bill shall be 
considered for amendment under the five-minute rule. The amendment in the nature 
of a substitute recommended by the Committee on Small Business now printed in 
the bill, modified by the amendment printed in part A of 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. The bill, as amended, shall be 
considered as the original bill for the purpose of further amendment under the 
five-minute rule and shall be considered as read. All points of order against 
provisions in the bill, as amended, are waived. Notwithstanding clause 11 of 
rule XVIII, no further amendment to the bill, as amended, shall be in order 
except those printed in part B of the report of the Committee on Rules. Each 
such further amendment may be offered only in the order printed in the report, 
may be offered only by a Member designated in the report, shall be considered as 
read, shall be debatable for the time specified 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 
further amendments are waived except those arising under clause 9 or 10 of rule 
XXI. 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 further 
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.
    Sec. 2. During consideration in the House of H.R. 1361 pursuant to this 
resolution, notwithstanding the operation of the previous question, the Chair 
may postpone further consideration of the bill to such time as may be designated 
by the Speaker.

                                                                          Clerk.
