                       MAY 6, 1997.-Referred to the House Calendar and ordered to be printed


                             Mr. SOLOMON, from the Committee on Rules,
                                       submitted the following


                                            REPORT

                                        [To accompany H. Res. 143]
                     The Committee on Rules, having had under consideration House
                   Resolution 143, by a record vote of 8 to 3, report the same to the
                   House with the recommendation that the resolution be adopted.
                            BRIEF SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS OF RESOLUTION
                     The resolution provides for the consideration of H.R. 3, the Ju-
                   venile Crime Control Act of 1997 under a modified closed rule. The
                   rule provides one hour of general debate divided equally between
                   the chairman and ranking minority member of the Committee on
                   the Judiciary.
                     The rule provides that the committee amendment in the nature
                   of a substitute will be considered as an original bill for the purpose
                   of amendment and will be considered as read. The rule waives
                   points of order against the committee amendment in the nature of
                   a substitute for failure to comply with clause 5(a), rule XXI (appro-
                   priations on a legislative bill).
                     The rule provides that no amendments to the committee amend-
                   ment in the nature of a substitute will be in order except those
                   printed in the Rules Committee report. It provides that each
                   amendment may be offered only in the order printed in the report,
                   shall be debatable for the time specified in the report equally di-
                   vided between the proponent and an opponent, and is not amend-
                   able except as specified in the report.
                     The rule allows the Chairman of the Committee of the Whole to
                   postpone votes during consideration of the bill, and to reduce the
                   vote to five minutes on a postponed question if the vote follows a
                   fifteen minute vote. Finally, the rule provides for one motion to re-
                   commit, with or without instructions.
