                         REGARDING S. RES. 304

 Mr. LOTT. Mr. President, I would like to make some clarifying 
remarks regarding the resolution recently agreed to by the Senate, S. 
Res. 304. This resolution will approve certain regulations to implement 
provisions of the Congressional Accountability Act. These regulations 
are approved to the extent they are consistent with the Congressional 
Accountability Act. In that regard, section 220(c)(3) of that act 
allows for judicial review of negotiability issues, although it limits 
who may seek review. Also, the term ``any matter'' under section 
220(c)(1) of that act clearly includes any and all petitions and other 
submissions submitted to the board under section 220(c)(1) of the act.
