  SENATE RESOLUTION 320--TO AUTHORIZE TESTIMONY BY SENATE EMPLOYEE IN 
                    STATE ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEEDING

  Mr. LOTT (for himself and Mr. Daschle) submitted the following 
resolution; which was considered and agreed to:

                              S. Res. 320

  Whereas, in the Inquiry Relative to the Claim for Benefits of Yolanda 
Nock, pending before the Department of Labor, in the County of Sussex, 
State of Delaware, a subpoena for testimony has been issued to Elinor 
Hughes, an employee of the Senate on the staff of Senator William V. 
Roth, Jr.;
  Whereas, by the privileges of the Senate of the United States and 
Rule XI of the Standing Rules of the Senate, no evidence under the 
control or in the possession of the Senate may, by the judicial or 
administrative process, be taken from such control or possession but by 
permission of the Senate;
  Whereas, when it appears that evidence under the control or in the 
possession of the Senate may promote the administration of justice, the 
Senate will take such action as will promote the ends of justice 
consistently with the privileges of the Senate: Now, therefore, be it
  Resolved, that Elinor Hughes is authorized to testify in the Inquiry 
Relative to the Claim for Benefits of Yolanda Nock, except concerning 
matters for which a privilege should be asserted.
