   Mr. DASCHLE. Mr. President, as all of our colleagues know, over the last many weeks we have been attempting to work out an arrangement whereby we can go to conference on terrorism insurance . I am very pleased to be able to report this morning that we are now in a position to be able to do so. I have been in consultation with the Republican leader, and I am prepared now to present a unanimous consent request in that regard.

   I ask unanimous consent the Senate proceed to the immediate consideration of Calendar No. 252, H.R. 3210, the House-passed terrorism insurance bill, that all after the enacting clause be stricken, the text of S. 2600 as passed by the Senate be inserted in lieu thereof, the bill as thus amended be read the third time, passed, the motion to reconsider be laid upon the table; that the Senate insist upon its amendment, request a conference with the House upon the disagreeing votes of the two Houses, and that the Chair be authorized to appoint conferees on the part of the Senate with the ratio of 4 to 3, all without intervening action or debate.

   The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.

   The bill (H.R. 3210), as amended, was read the third time and passed.

   The PRESIDING OFFICER appointed Mr. Sarbanes, Mr. Dodd, Mr. Reed, Mr. Schumer, Mr. Gramm, Mr. Shelby, and Mr. Enzi conferees on the part of the Senate.
