                      Unanimous-Consent Agreement

  Mr. LOTT. Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent that the scheduled 
cloture vote be vitiated with the previous debate limitation still in 
effect.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.
  Mr. LOTT. In light of the earlier consent with respect to debate time 
on the FDA bill--I believe Senator Jeffords got the unanimous-consent 
request agreed to a few moments ago--there will be no further votes 
this evening. The Senate will begin, now, up to 4 hours of debate on 
the FDA bill. The concluding 4 hours of debate will begin at 12 noon on 
Wednesday. Therefore, final passage will occur at approximately 3:45 on 
Wednesday, of the Food and Drug Administration reform bill.
  I guess I should put that in the form of a request, Mr. President.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.
