[H. Res. 248 Engrossed in House (EH)]

In the House of Representatives, U.S.,

April 28, 2005.
Resolved, That upon adoption of this resolution it shall be in order to
consider the conference report to accompany the concurrent resolution (H. Con.
Res. 95) establishing the congressional budget for the United States Government
for fiscal year 2006, revising appropriate budgetary levels for fiscal year
2005, and setting forth appropriate budgetary levels for fiscal years 2007
through 2010. All points of order against the conference report and against its
consideration are waived. The conference report shall be considered as read. The
conference report shall be debatable for one hour equally divided and controlled
by the chairman and ranking minority member of the Committee on the Budget.
Sec. 2. (a) During the One Hundred Ninth Congress, except as provided in
subsection (c), a motion that the Committee of the Whole rise and report a bill
to the House shall not be in order if the bill, as amended, exceeds an
applicable allocation of new budget authority under section 302(b) of the
Congressional Budget Act of 1974, as estimated by the Committee on the Budget.
(b) If a point of order under subsection (a) is sustained, the Chair shall
put the question: ``Shall the Committee of the Whole rise and report the bill to
the House with such amendments as may have been adopted notwithstanding that the
bill exceeds its allocation of new budget authority under section 302(b) of the
Congressional Budget Act of 1974?''. Such question shall be debatable for 10
minutes equally divided and controlled by a proponent of the question and an
opponent but shall be decided without intervening motion.
(c) Subsection (a) shall not apply--
(1) to a motion offered under clause 2(d) of rule XXI; or
(2) after disposition of a question under subsection (b) on a given
bill.
(d) If a question under subsection (b) is decided in the negative, no
further amendment shall be in order except--
(1) one proper amendment, which shall be debatable for 10 minutes
equally divided and controlled by the proponent and an opponent, shall
not be subject to amendment, and shall not be subject to a demand for
division of the question in the House or in the Committee of the Whole;
and
(2) pro forma amendments, if offered by the chairman or ranking
minority member of the Committee on Appropriations or their designees,
for the purpose of debate.
Attest:

Clerk.
