       REVISIONS TO ALLOCATION FOR HOUSE COMMITTEE ON AGRICULTURE

  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Under a previous order of the House, the 
gentleman from Iowa (Mr. Nussle) is recognized for 5 minutes.
  Mr. NUSSLE. Mr. Speaker, in accordance with sections 213 and 221 of 
H. Con. Res. 83, I hereby submit for printing in the Congressional 
Record adjustments to the section 302(a) allocation to the House 
Committee on Agriculture, set forth in H. Rept. 107-60, to reflect $0 
billion in additional new budget authority and outlays for fiscal year 
2002 and $28.492 billion in additional budget authority and $25.860 
billion in additional outlays for the period of fiscal years 2002 
through 2006.
  Section 213 of H. Con. Res. 83 authorizes the Chairman of the House 
Budget Committee to increase the 302(a) allocation of the Committee on 
Agriculture for legislation that reauthorizes the Federal Agriculture 
Improvement Act of 1996, title I of that Act, or other appropriate 
agricultural production legislation.
  Section 221 provides that for the purpose of enforcing H. Con. Res. 
83, the applicable allocations are those set forth for fiscal year 2002 
and for the total for the period of Fiscal Years 2002 through 2006. 
This section further provides that the Chairman is authorized to make 
the necessary adjustments in the allocations and aggregates to carry 
out the purposes of the budget resolution.
  Both as reported by the Committee on Agriculture and as modified by 
the rule, the bill is within the levels assumed for this bill in the 
two periods applicable to the House; Fiscal Year 2002 and for the total 
of Fiscal Years 2002 through 2006 as required under section 302(f) of 
the Congressional Budget Act of 1974.
