to consider a bill or joint resolution reported pursuant to
section 2002, or an amendment to, conference report on, or
amendment between the Houses in relation to such a bill or

1341 of title 31, United States Code, as determined by the
Comptroller General, or if there are any employees being paid
in violation of section 3103 of title 5, United States Code,
which requires civil service employees to be paid ``only for
services actually rendered in connection with and for the
purposes of the appropriation for which'' the employee is
paid.
