                              R E P O R T

                       [To accompany H. Res. 788]

    The Committee on Rules, having had under consideration 
House Resolution 788, 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 provides for consideration of the conference 
report to accompany H.R. 3183, the Energy and Water Development 
and Related Agencies Appropriations Act, 2010. The resolution 
waives all points of order against the conference report on 
H.R. 3183 and against its consideration. The resolution 
provides that the conference report shall be considered as 
read. Finally, the resolution provides that the previous 
question shall be considered as ordered without intervention of 
any motion except one hour of debate and one motion to recommit 
if applicable.

                         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 clauses 9 or 10 of rule 
XXI.
