 ANNOUNCEMENT OF INTENTION TO OFFER A RESOLUTION RAISING A QUESTION OF 
                        PRIVILEGES OF THE HOUSE

  Mr. MILLER of California. Mr. Speaker, pursuant to clause 2 of rule 
IX, I hereby give notice of my intention to offer a resolution which 
raises a question of the privileges of the House. The form of the 
resolution is as follows:


[[Page H78]]


       Be it resolved that the Select Committee on Ethics should, 
     when it releases its final report concerning Representative 
     Newt Gingrich, disclose to the public all documents 
     concerning the matter, including but not limited to the work 
     of the special counsel.

  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Under rule IX, a resolution offered from the 
floor by a Member other than the majority leader or the minority leader 
as a question of the privileges of the House has immediate precedence 
only at a time or place designated by the Chair in the legislative 
schedule within 2 legislative days its being properly noticed. That 
designation will be announced at a later time. In the meantime, the 
form of the resolution noticed by the gentleman from California will 
appear in the Record at this point.
  The Chair is not at this point making a determination as to whether 
or not the resolution constitutes a question of privilege. That 
determination will be made at the time designated for the consideration 
of the resolution.

                          ____________________
