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

                              R E P O R T

                       [To accompany H. Res. 817]

    The Committee on Rules, having had under consideration 
House Resolution 817, by a non-record 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 on H.R. 3074, Transportation, Housing and 
Urban Development, and Related Agencies Appropriations Act, 
2008, and against its consideration and provides that the 
conference report shall be considered as read.

                         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 House Resolution 
491 or clause 9 or 10 of rule XXI (requiring earmarks to be 
disclosed in the conference report and requiring conference 
reports to be in compliance with the PAYGO rule).
