Section 240.1100  Analysis of Agency Response

a)         If the Joint Committee finds that the agency's response to an objection or recommendation is not adequate, the Committee will notify the agency and submit a copy of such notification to the Administrative Code Division for publication in the Illinois Register.  The notice will include a specific statement of the reasons the Joint Committee has determined that the response to the objection or recommendation is not adequate. Failure of the agency to respond to a Joint Committee objection or recommendation shall be deemed to be a refusal.

b)           If the agency fails to remedy an objection or adequately respond to a recommendation, the Joint Committee may draft legislation to address the problems. Such legislation must be approved by a majority vote and may be introduced in either house of the General Assembly. (Ill. Rev. Stat. 1991, ch. 127, par. 1005-120) [5 ILCS 100/5-120]
