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.

In making a determination of whether or not to revoke or suspend a certified license in this State, the Illinois State Police shall consider the number of retail locations the certified licensee or any related person or entity operates in this State or in other states under the same or different business names, and the severity of the infraction in the state in which a license was revoked or suspended. (d) Applications and affidavits required under this Section are not subject to disclosure by the Illinois State Police under the Freedom of Information Act.
