   UNANIMOUS CONSENT AGREEMENT--NOMINATION OF JOHN M. DEUTCH, TO BE 
                    DIRECTOR OF CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE

  Mr. DOLE. Finally, Mr. President, as in executive session, I ask 
unanimous consent that immediately following the cloture vote and the 
vote on the V-E Day resolution, notwithstanding rule XXII, 
the Senate go into executive session to consider the nomination of John 
Deutch, to be Director of the CIA, and that it be considered under the 
following time agreement: 2 hours equally divided between the chairman 
and vice chairman of the Intelligence Committee, or their designees; 
that following the conclusion, or yielding back of time, the nomination 
be set aside; and that the Senate then return to legislative session, 
with the vote to occur on the nomination at 10:30 a.m. on Tuesday, May 
9, 1995.
  I believe this has been cleared on both sides. We will have debate 
this afternoon and vote tomorrow morning. I know the President very 
much wants to have this nomination addressed. We are prepared to do 
that.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.
  Mr. DOLE. Mr. President, let me suggest the absence of a quorum 
unless someone would like to speak. There are 8 minutes before the 
cloture vote occurs. I suggest the absence of a quorum.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The clerk will call the roll.
  The legislative clerk proceeded to call the roll.
  Mr. HEFLIN. Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent that the order for 
the quorum call be rescinded.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.
