receive it. I believe, again, that recommendation was
unanimous.
Our proposed amendment to Rule 36 is a clarify-
ing amendment to eliminate an inconsistency. At the
present time Rule 54 provides in the order of proceeding
that when the report of the Committee of the Whole is
approved, it would go to the Committee on Style. Rule 36,
however, as it is now written, indicates that the Committee
of the Whole can refer a report to any committee. This
is an attempt to eliminate that inconsistency.
That brings us to our proposed amendment to
Rule 37. This is a rule, I might as well read it -- this
is again a fairly important substantive proposal: Before
a proposal is taken up by the Committee of the Whole,
any delegate, with the Chairman of the Committee on Calen-
dar and Agenda having the prior right shall be privileged
to move that a limitation be placed upon the time of the
debate and consideration of such proposal by the Committee
of the Whole; provided that equal time is to be afforded to
the proponents and opponents of such proposal, and the
Committee may fix in advance consideration of a proposal |
