      SUPPLEMENTAL REPORT ON H.R. 217, HOMELESS HOUSING PROGRAMS 
                   CONSOLIDATION AND FLEXIBILITY ACT

  Mr. LAZIO of New York. Mr. Speaker, I ask unanimous consent to file 
on behalf of the Committee on Banking and Financial Services a 
supplemental report to accompany the bill (H.R. 217), to amend Title IV 
of the Stewart B. McKinney Homeless Assistance Act to consolidate the 
Federal programs for housing assistance for the homeless into a block 
grant program that ensures that States and communities are provided 
sufficient flexibility to use assistance amounts effectively.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Is there objection to the request of the 
gentleman from New York?
  There was no objection.
