   25.1. The standing committees shall be appointed at the commencement 
of each Congress, and shall continue and have the power to act until 
their successors are appointed, with leave to report by bill or 
otherwise on matters within their respective jurisdictions.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------


                               *    *    *
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

   25.4. (b)(1) Each Senator may serve on not more than three 
subcommittees of each committee (other than the Committee on 
Appropriations) listed in paragraph 2 of which he is a member.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------


                               *    *    *
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

   26.3. Each standing committee (except the Committee on 
Appropriations) shall fix regular weekly, biweekly, or monthly meeting 
days for the transaction of business before the committee and additional 
meetings may be called by the chairman as he may deem necessary. If at 
least three members of any such committee desire that a special meeting 
of the committee be called by the chairman, those members may file in 
the offices of the committee their written request to the chairman for 
that special meeting. Immediately upon the filing of the request, the 
clerk of the committee shall notify the chairman of the filing of the 
request. If, within three calendar days after the filing of the request, 
the chairman does not call the requested special meeting, to be held 
within seven calendar days after the filing of the request, a majority 
of the members of the committee may file in the offices of the committee 
their written notice that a special meeting of the committee will be 
held, specifying the date and hour of that special meeting. The 
committee shall meet on that date and hour. Immediately upon the filing 
of the notice, the clerk of the committee shall notify all members of 
the committee that such special meeting will be held and inform them of 
its date and hour. If the chairman of any such committee is not present 
at any regular, additional, or special meeting of the committee, the 
ranking member of the majority party on the committee who is present 
shall preside at that meeting.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

   26.5. (a) Notwithstanding any other provision of the rules, when the 
Senate is in session, no committee of the Senate or any subcommittee 
thereof may meet, without special leave, after the conclusion of the 
first two hours after the meeting of the Senate commenced and in no case 
after two o'clock postmeridian unless consent therefor has been obtained 
from the majority leader and the minority leader (or in the event of the 
absence of either of such leaders, from his designee). The prohibition 
contained in the preceding sentence shall not apply to the Committee on 
Appropriations or the Committee on the Budget. The majority leader or 
his designee shall announce to the Senate whenever consent has been 
given under this subparagraph and shall state the time and place of such 
meeting. The right to make such announcement of consent shall have the 
same priority as the filing of a cloture motion.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------


                               *    *    *
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

   26.6. Morning meetings of committees and subcommittees thereof shall 
be scheduled for one or both of the periods prescribed in this 
paragraph. The first period shall end at eleven o'clock antemeridian. 
The second period shall begin at eleven o'clock antemeridian and end at 
two o'clock postmeridian.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------


                               *    *    *
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

   26.7. (a)(1) Except as provided in this paragraph, each committee, 
and each subcommittee thereof is authorized to fix the number of its 
members (but not less than one-third of its entire membership) who shall 
constitute a quorum thereof for the transaction of such business as may 
be considered by said committee, except that no measure or matter or 
recommendation shall be reported from any committee unless a majority of 
the committee were physically present.
   (2) Each such committee, or subcommittee, is authorized to fix a 
lesser number than one-third of its entire membership who shall 
constitute a quorum thereof for the purpose of taking sworn testimony.
   (3) The vote of any committee to report a measure or matter shall 
require the concurrence of a majority of the members of the committee 
who are present. No vote of any member of any committee to report a 
measure or matter may be cast by proxy if rules adopted by such 
committee forbid the casting of votes for that purpose by proxy; 
however, proxies may not be voted when the absent committee member has 
not been informed of the matter on which he is being recorded and has 
not affirmatively requested that he be so recorded. Action by any 
committee in reporting any measure or matter in accordance with the 
requirements of this subparagraph shall constitute the ratification by 
the committee of all action theretofore taken by the committee with 
respect to that measure or matter, including votes taken upon the 
measure or matter or any amendment thereto, and no point of order shall 
lie with respect to that measure or matter on the ground that such 
previous action with respect thereto by such committee was not taken in 
compliance with such requirements.
   (b) Each committee (except the Committee on Appropriations) shall 
keep a complete record of all committee action. Such record shall 
include a record of the votes on any question on which a record vote is 
demanded. The results of roll call votes taken in any meeting of any 
committee upon any measure, or any amendment thereto, shall be announced 
in the committee report on that measure unless previously announced by 
the committee, and such announcement shall include a tabulation of the 
votes cast in favor of and the votes cast in opposition to each such 
measure and amendment by each member of the committee who was present at 
that meeting.
   (c) Whenever any committee by roll call vote reports any measure or 
matter, the report of the committee upon such measure or matter shall 
include a tabulation of the votes cast by each member of the committee 
in favor of and in opposition to such measure or matter. Nothing 
contained in this subparagraph shall abrogate the power of any committee 
to adopt rules:


     (1) providing for proxy voting on all matters other than the 
   reporting of a measure or matter, or
     (2) providing in accordance with subparagraph (a) for a lesser 
   number as a quorum for any action other than the reporting of a 
   measure or matter.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------


                               *    *    *
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

   26.10. (b) It shall be the duty of the chairman of each committee to 
report or cause to be reported promptly to the Senate any measure 
approved by his committee and to take or cause to be taken necessary 
steps to bring the matter to a vote. In any event, the report of any 
committee upon a measure which has been approved by the committee shall 
be filed within seven calendar days (exclusive of days on which the 
Senate is not in session) after the day on which there has been filed 
with the clerk of the committee a written and signed request of a 
majority of the committee for the reporting of that measure. Upon the 
filing of any such request, the clerk of the committee shall transmit 
immediately to the chairman of the committee notice of the filing of 
that request. This subparagraph does not apply to the Committee on 
Appropriations.
   (c) If at the time of approval of a measure or matter by any 
committee (except for the Committee on Appropriations), any member of 
the committee gives notice of intention to file supplemental, minority, 
or additional views, that member shall be entitled to not less than 
three calendar days in which to file such views, in writing, with the 
clerk of the committee. All such views so filed by one or more members 
of the committee shall be included within, and shall be a part of, the 
report filed by the committee with respect to that measure or matter. 
The report of the committee upon that measure or matter shall be printed 
in a single volume which--


     (1) shall include all supplemental, minority, or additional views 
   which have been submitted by the time of the filing of the report, 
   and
     (2) shall bear upon its cover a recital that supplemental, 
   minority, or additional views are included as part of the report.
     This subparagraph does not preclude--
     (A) the immediate filing and printing of a committee report unless 
   timely request for the opportunity to file supplemental, minority, or 
   additional views has been made as provided by this subparagraph; or
     (B) the filing by any such committee of any supplemental report 
   upon any measure or matter which may be required for the correction 
   of any technical error in a previous report made by that committee 
   upon that measure or matter.

     

                    RULES OF THE SENATE COMMITTEE ON

month while the Congress is in session for the purpose of conducting 
business, unless, for the convenience of Members, the Chairman shall set 
some other day for a meeting. Additional meetings may be called by the 
Chairman as he or she may deem necessary.
   (b) Hearings of any Subcommittee may be called by the Chairman of 
such Subcommittee, provided that no Subcommittee hearing, other than a 
field hearing, shall be scheduled or held concurrently with a full 
Committee meeting or hearing, unless a majority of the Committee concurs 
in such concurrent hearing.
                       OPEN HEARINGS AND MEETINGS

   Rule 3. (a) All hearings and business meetings of the Committee and 
all the hearings of any of its Subcommittees shall be open to the public

meeting to be closed in accordance with paragraph 5(b) of Rule XXVI of 
the Standing Rules of the Senate.
   (b) A transcript shall be kept of each hearing of the Committee or 
any Subcommittee.
   (c) A transcript shall be kept of each business meeting of the

   Rule 4. (a) Public notice shall be given of the date, place, and 
subject matter of any hearing to be held by the Committee or any 
Subcommittee at least one week in advance of such hearing unless the 
Chairman of the full Committee or the Subcommittee involved determines 
that the hearing is non-controversial or that special circumstances 
require expedited procedures and a majority of all the Members of the 
Committee or the Subcommittee involved concurs. In no case shall a 
hearing be conducted with less than twenty-four hours' notice. Any 
document or report that is the subject of a hearing shall be provided to 
every Member of the Committee or Subcommittee involved at least 72 hours 
before the hearing unless the Chairman and Ranking Member determine 
otherwise.
   (b) Each witness who is to appear before the Committee or any

hours in advance of the hearing, a written statement of his or her

   (c) Each Member shall be limited to five minutes in the questioning 
of any witness until such time as all Members who so desire have had an 
opportunity to question the witness.
   (d) No staff member may question a witness at a hearing.
                       BUSINESS MEETING PROCEDURES

   Rule 5. (a) A legislative measure, nomination, or other matter shall 
be included on the agenda of the next following business meeting of the 
full Committee if a written request by a Member of the Committee for 
such inclusion has been filed with the Chairman of the Committee at 
least one week prior to such meeting. Nothing in this rule shall be 
construed to limit the authority of the Chairman of the Committee to 
include a legislative measure, nomination, or other matter on the 
Committee agenda in the absence of such request.
   (b) The agenda for any business meeting of the Committee shall be 
provided to each Member and made available to the public at least three 
days prior to such meeting, and no new items may be added after the

Members of the Committee on matters not included on the public agenda. 
The Staff Director shall promptly notify absent Members of any action 
taken by the Committee on matters not included on the published agenda.
   (c) As warranted, the Chairman, in consultation with the Ranking 
Member, may impose a filing deadline for first degree amendments for any 
legislative business meeting of the Committee.
                                 QUORUMS

   Rule 6. (a) Except as provided in subsections (b) and (c), seven 
Members shall constitute a quorum for the conduct of business of the 
Committee.
   (b) No measure or matter shall be ordered reported from the Committee

action is taken.
   (c) One Member shall constitute a quorum for the purpose of 
conducting a hearing or taking testimony on any measure or matter before 
the Committee or any Subcommittee.
                                 VOTING

   Rule 7. (a) A roll call of the Members shall be taken upon the 
request of any Member. Any Member who does not vote on any roll call at 
the time the roll is called, may vote (in person or by proxy) on that 
roll call at any later time during the same business meeting.
   (b) Proxy voting shall be permitted on all matters, except that 
proxies may not be counted for the purpose of determining the presence 
of a quorum. Unless further limited, a proxy shall be exercised only 
upon the date for which it is given and upon the items published in the 
agenda for that date.
   (c) Each Committee report shall set forth the vote on the motion to 
report the measure or matter involved. Unless the Committee directs 
otherwise, the report will not set out any votes on amendments offered 
during Committee consideration. Any Member who did not vote on any roll 
call shall have the opportunity to have his or her position recorded in 
the appropriate Committee record or Committee report.
   (d) The Committee vote to report a measure to the Senate shall also 
authorize the staff of the Committee to make necessary technical and 
clerical corrections in the measure.
                              SUBCOMMITTEES

   Rule 8. (a) The number of Members assigned to each Subcommittee and 
the division between Majority and Minority Members shall be fixed by the 
Chairman in consultation with the Ranking Minority Member.
   (b) Assignment of Members to Subcommittees shall, insofar as 
possible, reflect the preferences of the Members. No Member will receive 
assignment to a second Subcommittee until, in order of seniority, all 
Members of the Committee have chosen assignments to one Subcommittee, 
and no Member shall receive assignment to a third Subcommittee until, in 
order of seniority, all Members have chosen assignments to two 
Subcommittees.
   (c) Any Member of the Committee may sit with any Subcommittee during 
its hearings but shall not have the authority to vote on any matters 
before the Subcommittee unless he or she is a Member of such 
Subcommittee.
                               NOMINATIONS

   Rule 9. At any hearing to confirm a Presidential nomination, the 
testimony of the nominee and, at the request of any Member, any other 
witness shall be under oath. Every nominee shall submit the financial 
disclosure report filed pursuant to title I of the Ethics in Government 
Act of 1978. Such report is made available to the public.
                             INVESTIGATIONS

   Rule 10. (a) Neither the Committee nor any of its Subcommittees may 
undertake an investigation unless specifically authorized by the 
Chairman and the Ranking Minority Member or a majority of all the 
Members of the Committee.
   (b) A witness called to testify in an investigation shall be informed 
of the matter or matters under investigation, given a copy of these 
rules, given the opportunity to make a brief and relevant oral statement 
before or after questioning, and be permitted to have counsel of his or 
her choosing present during his or her testimony at any public or closed 
hearing, or at any unsworn interview, to advise the witness of his or 
her legal rights.
   (c) For purposes of this rule, the term ``investigation'' shall not 
include a review or study undertaken pursuant to paragraph 8 of Rule 
XXVI of the Standing Rules of the Senate or a preliminary inquiry, 
undertaken at the direction of the Chairman or the Ranking Member, 
intended to determine whether there is substantial credible evidence 
that would warrant an investigation.
                             SWORN TESTIMONY

   Rule 11. Witnesses in Committee or Subcommittee hearings may be 
required to give testimony under oath whenever the Chairman or Ranking 
Minority Member of the Committee or Subcommittee deems such to be 
necessary. If one or more witnesses at a hearing are required to testify 
under oath, all witnesses at such hearing shall be required to testify 
under oath.
                                SUBPOENAS

   Rule 12. The Chairman shall have authority to issue subpoenas for the 
attendance of witnesses or the production of memoranda, documents, 
records, or other materials (1) with the agreement of the Ranking 
Minority Member, (2) when authorized by a majority of all the Members of 
the Committee, or (3) when within the scope of an investigation 
authorized under Rule 10(a).
                         CONFIDENTIAL TESTIMONY
