                          APPENDIX TO STANDING RULES OF THE SENATE

                ____________________________________________________________
                    [Note.--S. Res. 445, 108-2, a resolution to eliminate
                certain restrictions on service of a Senator on the Senate
                Select Committee on Intelligence, passed the Senate Oct. 9,
                2004. The resolution made several changes to the
                jurisdiction, treatment and name of Senate Committees.
                However, the provisions of S. Res. 445 did not modify the
                Standing Rules of the Senate and therefore could not be
                included in this document except as an appendix. The
                effective date for the provisions of the resolution was the
                convening of the 109th Congress. Titles I, III and V of S.
                Res. 445 are printed in this appendix.
