                              R E P O R T

                       [To accompany H. Res. 409]

    The Committee on Rules, having had under consideration 
House Resolution 409, by 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 S. Con. Res. 21, setting forth 
the congressional budget for the United States Government for 
fiscal year 2008 and including the appropriate budgetary levels 
for fiscal years 2007 and 2009 through 2012, and against its 
consideration. The rule provides that the conference report 
shall be considered as read. The rule provides for one hour of 
debate equally divided and controlled by the chairman and 
ranking minority member of the Committee on the Budget.

                         EXPLANATION OF WAIVERS

    The waiver of all points of order against the conference 
report and against its consideration includes a waiver of 
clause 8 of rule XXII (requiring a three-day layover of 
conference reports and the accompanying joint explanatory 
statement). Although the rule waives all points of order 
against the conference report and against its consideration, 
the conference report does not violate either clause 9 or 10 of 
rule XXI.
