( 2 ) In the review required by paragraph ( 1 1 of 

 this subsection, the Secretary shall determine 

 whether, and for how long, the continuation of the 

 existing withdrawal of the lands would be, in his 

 judgment, consistent with the statutory objectives

 and of the other relevant programs. The Secretary 

 shall repKjrt his recommendations to the President, 

 together with statements of concurrence or non- 

 concurrence submitted by the heads of the depart-

 President shall transmit this report to the President 

 of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Rep-

 committee to which a resolution has been referred 

 during the said ninety day period, has not reported 

 it at the end of thirty calendar days after its refer-

 the resolution, shall be highly privileged (except 

 that it may not be made after the committee has 

 reported such a resolution), and debate thereon 

 shall be limited to not more than one hour, to be 

 divided equally between those favoring and those 

 opposing the resolution. An amendment to the 

 motion shall not be in order, and it shall not be in 

 order to move to reconsider the vote by which the 

 motion was agreed to or disagreed to. If the motion 

 to discharge is agi-eed to or disagreed to, the motion 

 may not be made with respect to any other resolu- 

 tion with respect to the same Presidential recom- 

 mendation. When the committee has reprinted, or 

 has been discharged from further consideration of 

 a resolution, it shall at any time thereafter be in 

 order (even though a previous motion to the same 

 effect has been disagreed to) to move to proceed 

 to the consideration of the resolution. The motion
