Food and Drugs, Department of Health and Human Services.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The question is, Will the Senate advise and 
consent to the nomination of Jane E. Henney, of New Mexico, to be 
Commissioner of Food and Drugs, Department of Health and Human 
Services?
  The nomination was confirmed.
  Mr. LOTT. I ask unanimous consent that the motion to reconsider be 
laid upon the table, the President be immediately notified of the 
Senate's action, and the Senate then return to legislative session.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.
  Mr. LOTT. I thank the Senators for allowing me to get these 
nominations moved. They have a way of becoming unapproved if you wait 
very long once they are approved. And so I thank you for your 
cooperation on that.
  I yield the floor.
