                               following

                              R E P O R T

                       [To accompany H. Res. 461]

    The Committee on Rules, having had under consideration 
House Resolution 461, 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. 2888, 
the ``Sales Incentive Act'' 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 
Education and the Workforce.
    The rule makes in order the Committee on Education and the 
Workforce amendment in the nature of a substitute as an 
original bill for purpose of amendment, which shall be 
considered as read. The rule allows for the Chairman of the 
Committee of the Whole to postpone votes during consideration 
of the bill, and to reduce voting time to five minutes on a 
postponed question if the vote follows a fifteen minute vote.
    Members who have preprinted their amendments in the Record 
prior to their consideration will be given priority in 
recognition to offer their amendments if otherwise consistent 
with House rules. Finally, the rule provides for one motion to 
recommit, with or without instructions.
