                            MORNING BUSINESS

  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Under the previous order, the Senate will be 
in a period of morning business until 10:30 a.m., with Senators 
permitted to speak for up to 10 minutes each, with the time equally 
divided, and the majority controlling the first half.
  The Senator from North Dakota.
  Mr. HOEVEN. Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent to engage in a 
colloquy for up to 20 minutes.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Is there objection?
  Mr. DURBIN. Mr. President, I understand the time is equally divided 
between now and 10:30. Is there sufficient time for the Republican 
Senator to use 20 minutes?
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The time would be 18 minutes on each side.
  Mr. DURBIN. Then I have no objection to how the Senators choose to 
use that time.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.
