           UNANIMOUS CONSENT AGREEMENT--EXECUTIVE NOMINATIONS

  Mr. McCONNELL. As in executive session, I ask unanimous consent that 
the nominations to the Office of Inspector General, except the Office 
of Inspector General of the Central Intelligence Agency, be referred in 
each case to the committee having primary jurisdiction over the 
department, agency, or entity, and if and when reported in each case, 
then to the Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs for 
not to exceed 20 calendar days, except in cases when the 20-day period 
expires while the Senate is in recess, the committee shall have 5 
additional calendar days after the Senate reconvenes to report the 
nomination, and that if the nomination is not reported after the 
expiration of that period, the nomination be automatically discharged 
and placed on the executive calendar.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.
