                              R E P O R T

                       [To accompany H. Res. 167]
    The Committee on Rules, having had under consideration 
House Resolution 167, by a nonrecord vote, report the same to 
the House with the recommendation that the resolution be 
adopted.

               brief summary of provisions of resolution

    The resolution provides for the consideration of H.R. 1817, 
the Military Construction Appropriations Act for fiscal year 
1996 under an open rule. The rule provides one hour of general 
debate divided equally between the chairman and ranking 
minority member of the Committee on Appropriations.
    The rule waives clause 2 (prohibiting unauthorized and 
legislative provisions) and clause 6 (prohibiting 
reappropriations) of rule XXI against provisions of the bill. 
The rule authorizes the Chair to accord priority in recognition 
to Members who have pre-printed their amendments in the 
Congressional Record. The rule provides one motion to recommit.
    Section 2 of the rule provides that the spending and credit 
allocations to the Committee on Appropriations contained in the 
House passed budget resolution shall apply for Budget Act 
enforcement purposes until final adoption of a budget 
resolution. It is expected that the Committee on Appropriations 
will file its section 602(b) subcommittee allocations pursuant 
to this provision immediately following the adoption of the 
rule and prior to the consideration of the bill.
