   Mr. Quillen, from the Committee on Rules, submitted the following

                              R E P O R T

                       [To accompany H. Res. 63]

    The Committee on Rules, having had under consideration 
House Resolution 63, 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. 667, 
the ``Violent Criminal Incarceration Act'' under a modified 
open rule. The rule waives clause 2(l)(2)(B), requiring 
inclusion of rollcall votes in committee reports, and clause 
2(l)(6) of rule XI, the three-day report availability 
requirement, against the consideration of the bill. The rule 
provides one hour of general debate divided equally between the 
chairman and ranking minority member of the Committee on the 
Judiciary.
    The rule makes in order the Judiciary Committee amendment 
in the nature of a substitute as an original bill for the 
purpose of amendment under the five-minute rule for a period 
not to exceed ten hours. The rule waives clause 7 of rule XVI, 
the germaneness rule, and clause 5(a) of rule XXI, prohibiting 
appropriations in an authorization bill, against the committee 
substitute. The substitute is considered as read, meaning it is 
open to amendment at any point. The Chair may accord priority 
in recognition to Members who have pre-printed their amendments 
in the Record, and such amendments are considered as read.
    Finally, the rule provides one motion to recommit, with or 
without instructions.

                            committee votes

    Pursuant to clause 2(l)(2)(B) of House rule XI the results
