Information maintained by the Legislative Reference Bureau
Updating the database of the Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS) is an ongoing process. Recent laws may not yet be included in the ILCS database, but they are found on this site as Public Acts soon after they become law. For information concerning the relationship between statutes and Public Acts, refer to the Guide.

Because the statute database is maintained primarily for legislative drafting purposes, statutory changes are sometimes included in the statute database before they take effect. If the source note at the end of a Section of the statutes includes a Public Act that has not yet taken effect, the version of the law that is currently in effect may have already been removed from the database and you should refer to that Public Act to see the changes made to the current law.

    Sec. 7.2. State pension funding.
    (a) The amount of $10,000,000,000 is authorized to be used for the purpose of making contributions to the designated retirement systems. For the purposes of this Section, "designated retirement systems" means the State Employees' Retirement System of Illinois; the Teachers' Retirement System of the State of Illinois; the State Universities Retirement System; the Judges Retirement System of Illinois; and the General Assembly Retirement System.
    The amount of $3,466,000,000 of Bonds authorized by Public Act 96-43 is authorized to be used for the purpose of making a portion of the State's Fiscal Year 2010 required contributions to the designated retirement systems.
    The amount of $4,096,348,300 of Bonds authorized by this amendatory Act of the 96th General Assembly is authorized to be used for the purpose of making a portion of the State's Fiscal Year 2011 required contributions to the designated retirement systems.
    (b) The Pension Contribution Fund is created as a special fund in the State Treasury.
    The proceeds of the additional $10,000,000,000 of Bonds authorized by Public Act 93-2, less the amounts authorized in the Bond Sale Order to be deposited directly into the capitalized interest account of the General Obligation Bond Retirement and Interest Fund or otherwise directly paid out for bond sale expenses under Section 8, shall be deposited into the Pension Contribution Fund and used as provided in this Section.
    The proceeds of the additional $3,466,000,000 of Bonds authorized by Public Act 96-43, less the amounts directly paid out for bond sale expenses under Section 8, shall be deposited into the Pension Contribution Fund, and the Comptroller and the Treasurer shall, as soon as practical, (i) first, transfer from the Pension Contribution Fund to the General Revenue Fund or Common School Fund an amount equal to the amount of payments, if any, made to the designated retirement systems from the General Revenue Fund or Common School Fund in State fiscal year 2010 and (ii) second, make transfers from the Pension Contribution Fund to the designated retirement systems pursuant to Sections 2-124, 14-131, 15-155, 16-158, and 18-131 of the Illinois Pension Code.
    The proceeds of the additional $4,096,348,300 of Bonds authorized by this amendatory Act of the 96th General Assembly, less the amounts directly paid out for bond sale expenses under Section 8, shall be deposited into the Pension Contribution Fund, and the Comptroller and the Treasurer shall, as soon as practical, (i) first, transfer from the Pension Contribution Fund to the General Revenue Fund or Common School Fund an amount equal to the amount of payments, if any, made to the designated retirement systems from the General Revenue Fund or Common School Fund in State fiscal year 2011 and (ii) second, make transfers from the Pension Contribution Fund to the designated retirement systems pursuant to Sections 2-124, 14-131, 15-155, 16-158, and 18-131 of the Illinois Pension Code.
    (c) Of the amount of Bond proceeds from the bond sale authorized by Public Act 93-2 first deposited into the Pension Contribution Fund, there shall be reserved for transfers under this subsection the sum of $300,000,000, representing the required State contributions to the designated retirement systems for the last quarter of State fiscal year 2003, plus the sum of $1,860,000,000, representing the required State contributions to the designated retirement systems for State fiscal year 2004.
    Upon the deposit of sufficient moneys from the bond sale authorized by Public Act 93-2 into the Pension Contribution Fund, the Comptroller and Treasurer shall immediately transfer the sum of $300,000,000 from the Pension Contribution Fund to the General Revenue Fund.
    Whenever any payment of required State contributions for State fiscal year 2004 is made to one of the designated retirement systems, the Comptroller and Treasurer shall, as soon as practicable, transfer from the Pension Contribution Fund to the General Revenue Fund an amount equal to the amount of that payment to the designated retirement system. Beginning on the effective date of this amendatory Act of the 93rd General Assembly, the transfers from the Pension Contribution Fund to the General Revenue Fund shall be suspended until June 30, 2004, and the remaining balance in the Pension Contribution Fund shall be transferred directly to the designated retirement systems as provided in Section 6z-61 of the State Finance Act. On and after July 1, 2004, in the event that any amount is on deposit in the Pension Contribution Fund from time to time, the Comptroller and Treasurer shall continue to make such transfers based on fiscal year 2005 payments until the entire amount on deposit has been transferred.
    (d) All amounts deposited into the Pension Contribution Fund, other than the amounts reserved for the transfers under subsection (c) from the bond sale authorized by Public Act 93-2, other than amounts deposited into the Pension Contribution Fund from the bond sale authorized by Public Act 96-43 and other than amounts deposited into the Pension Contribution Fund from the bond sale authorized by this amendatory Act of the 96th General Assembly, shall be appropriated to the designated retirement systems to reduce their actuarial reserve deficiencies. The amount of the appropriation to each designated retirement system shall constitute a portion of the total appropriation under this subsection that is the same as that retirement system's portion of the total actuarial reserve deficiency of the systems, as most recently determined by the Governor's Office of Management and Budget under Section 8.12 of the State Finance Act.
    With respect to proceeds from the bond sale authorized by Public Act 93-2 only, within 15 days after any Bond proceeds in excess of the amounts initially reserved under subsection (c) are deposited into the Pension Contribution Fund, the Governor's Office of Management and Budget shall (i) allocate those proceeds among the designated retirement systems in proportion to their respective actuarial reserve deficiencies, as most recently determined under Section 8.12 of the State Finance Act, and (ii) certify those allocations to the designated retirement systems and the Comptroller.
    Upon receiving certification of an allocation under this subsection, a designated retirement system shall submit to the Comptroller a voucher for the amount of its allocation. The voucher shall be paid out of the amount appropriated to that designated retirement system from the Pension Contribution Fund pursuant to this subsection.
