     REVISIONS TO ALLOCATION FOR HOUSE COMMITTEE ON APPROPRIATIONS

  The SPEAKER pro tempore (Mr. LaHood). Under a previous order of the 
House, the gentleman from Iowa (Mr. Nussle) is recognized for 5 
minutes.
  Mr. NUSSLE. Mr. Speaker, pursuant to Sec. 314 of the Congressional 
Budget Act and Sec. 221(c) of H. Con. Res. 83, the concurrent 
resolution on the budget for fiscal year 2002, I hereby submit for 
printing in the Congressional Record revisions to the allocations for 
the House Committee on Appropriations.
  As reported to the House, H.R. 2330, the bill making appropriations 
for Agriculture and Related Agencies for fiscal year 2002, includes an 
emergency-designated appropriation providing $150,000,000 in new budget 
authority and $143,000,000 in new outlays. Under the provisions of both 
the Budget Act and the budget resolution, I must adjust the 302(a) 
allocations and budgetary aggregates upon the reporting of a bill 
containing emergency appropriations.
  Accordingly, I increase the 302(a) allocation to the House 
Appropriations Committee contained in House Report 107-100 by 
$150,000,000 in new budget authority and $143,000,000 in new outlays. 
This changes the 302(a) allocation for fiscal year 2002 to 
$661,450,000,000 for budget authority and $683,103,000,000 for outlays. 
The increase in the allocation also requires an increase in the 
budgetary aggregates to $1,626,638,000,000 for budget authority and 
$1,590,801,000,000 for outlays.
  The rule providing for consideration of H.R. 2330 strikes the 
emergency designation from the appropriation. Upon adoption of the 
rule, Sec. 314 of the Congressional Budget Act provides that these 
adjusted levels are automatically reduced by the amount that had been 
designated an emergency. Should the rule (H. Res. 183) not be adopted, 
these adjustments shall apply while the legislation is under 
consideration and shall take effect upon final enactment of the 
legislation. Questions may be directed to Dan Kowalski at 67270.
