                              R E P O R T

                       [To accompany H. Res. 564]

    The Committee on Rules, having had under consideration 
House Resolution 564, by a nonrecord vote, report the same to 
the House with the recommendation that the resolution be 
adopted.

                SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS OF THE RESOLUTION

    The resolution waives all points of order against the 
conference report to accompany H.R. 2528, Military Quality of 
Life and Veterans Affairs Appropriations Act, 2006, and against 
its consideration. The rule further provides that the 
conference report shall be considered as read.

                         EXPLANATION OF WAIVERS

    The waiver of all points of order against consideration of 
the conference report includes a waiver of clause 8 of rule 
XXII (requiring a three-day layover of conference reports and 
the accompanying joint explanatory statement), which is 
necessary because the conference report (H. Rept. 109-305) was 
not filed until the legislative day of Thursday, November 17, 
2005, and the conference report may be considered by the House 
as early as the legislative day of Friday, November 18, 2005.
