                              R E P O R T

                       [To accompany H. Res. 380]

    The Committee on Rules, having had under consideration 
House Resolution 380, 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 H.R. 3925, to 
establish an exchange program between the Federal Government 
and the private sector in order to promote the development of 
expertise in information technology management, and for other 
purposes, under an open rule. The rule waives all points of 
order against consideration of the bill.
    The rule provides one hour of general debate equally 
divided and controlled by the chairman and ranking minority 
member of the Committee on Government Reform. The rule provides 
that it shall be in order to consider as an original bill for 
the purpose of amendment the amendment in the nature of a 
substitute recommended by the Committee on Government Reform 
now printed in the bill, modified by the amendments recommended 
by the Committee on the Judiciary also printed in the bill.
    The rule allows the Chairman of the Committee of the Whole 
to accord priority in recognition to those Members who have 
preprinted their amendments in the Congressional Record. 
Finally, the rule provides one motion to recommit with or 
without instructions.
    The waiver of all points of order includes a waiver of 
clause 3(c) of rule XIII (requiring the inclusion in the report 
of any oversight findings and recommendations) because H. Rept. 
107-379, Part 1, filed by the Committee on Government Reform, 
does not include a statement of general performance goals and 
objectives. The waiver of all points of order also includes a 
waiver of clause 4(a) of rule XIII (requiring a three-day 
layover of the committee report), which is needed because H. 
Rept. 107-379, Part 2 was not filed by the Judiciary Committee 
until Tuesday, April 9 and the bill may be considered by the 
House as early as Wednesday, April 10.
