                                           [To accompany H.R. 6506]

                      The  Committee  on Ways   and Means,  to whom   was referred the
                    bill (H.R. 6506) to amend  the Internal Revenue   Code  of 1986 to
                    suspend  the period of limitations on filing a claim for credit or re-
                    fund during  collection action proceedings, to prohibit the crediting
                    of overpayments   against disputed  tax liability during such pro-
                    ceedings, and to expand  the jurisdiction of the Tax Court, having
                    considered the same, reports favorably thereon with an amendment
                    and recommends   that the bill as amended do pass.
