                           ORDER OF PROCEDURE

  Mr. KENNEDY. Mr. President, I see my colleague on the other side. I 
have been asked by the Senator from Michigan for some time. What is the 
remaining time to be divided between the Senator from Michigan and the 
Senator from Minnesota?
  The ACTING PRESIDENT pro tempore. The Senator from Ohio has 8\1/2\ 
minutes remaining. Under the previous order, the Senator from Illinois, 
Mr. Durbin, or his designee, is recognized for up to 30 minutes. Under 
the previous order, the Senator from Kansas, Mr. Roberts, is recognized 
to speak for up to 15 minutes and then morning business is to be closed 
at 1 p.m.
  Mr. KENNEDY. If the good Presiding Officer adds up the times, does 
that take us to 1 o'clock?
  The ACTING PRESIDENT pro tempore. Normally, we grant the full time of 
individual Senators. It is the Chair's opinion that will be the case, 
in that the ag appropriations bill is to be taken up at 1 o'clock, but 
I believe the Senator will be protected.
  Mr. KENNEDY. I ask unanimous consent that the time which remains be 
divided between the Senator from Michigan and the Senator from 
Minnesota, after my 15 minutes.
  The ACTING PRESIDENT pro tempore. Without objection, it is so 
ordered.
  Mr. KENNEDY. I thank the Chair.
