    Resolved, That at any time after the adoption of this resolution

House resolved into the Committee of the Whole House on the state of 
the Union for consideration of the bill (H.R. 4847) to reauthorize the 
United States Fire Administration, and for other purposes. The first 
reading of the bill shall be dispensed with. All points of order 
against consideration of the bill are waived except those arising under 
clause 9 or 10 of rule XXI. General debate shall be confined to the 
bill and shall not exceed one hour equally divided and controlled by 
the chairman and ranking minority member of the Committee on Science 
and Technology. After general debate the bill shall be considered for 
amendment under the five-minute rule. In lieu of the amendment in the 
nature of a substitute recommended by the Committee on Science and 
Technology now printed in the bill, it shall be in order to consider as 
an original bill for the purpose of amendment under the five-minute 
rule the amendment in the nature of a substitute printed in part A of 
the report of the Committee on Rules accompanying this resolution. That 
amendment in the nature of a substitute shall be considered as read. 
All points of order against that amendment in the nature of a 
substitute are waived except those arising under clause 10 of rule XXI. 
Notwithstanding clause 11 of rule XVIII, no amendment to that amendment 
in the nature of a substitute shall be in order except those printed in 
part B of the report of the Committee on Rules. Each amendment may be 
offered only in the order printed in the report, may be offered only by 
a Member designated in the report, shall be considered as read, shall 
be debatable for the time specified in the report 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. All points of 
order against such amendments are waived except those arising under 
clause 9 or 10 of rule XXI. At the conclusion of consideration of the 
bill for amendment the Committee shall rise and report the bill to the 
House with such amendments as may have been adopted. Any Member may 
demand a separate vote in the House on any amendment adopted in the 
Committee of the Whole to the bill or to the amendment in the nature of 
a substitute made in order as original text. The previous question 
shall be considered as ordered on the bill and amendments thereto to 
final passage without intervening motion except one motion to recommit 
with or without instructions.
    Sec. 2.  During consideration in the House of H.R. 4847 pursuant to 
this resolution, notwithstanding the operation of the previous 
question, the Chair may postpone further consideration of the bill to 
such time as may be designated by the Speaker.
