| 1 | AN ACT concerning the lottery.
| ||||||
| 2 | Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,
| ||||||
| 3 | represented in the General Assembly:
| ||||||
| 4 | Section 5. The Illinois Lottery Law is amended by adding | ||||||
| 5 | Sections 7.9 and 27.5 as follows: | ||||||
| 6 | (20 ILCS 1605/7.9 new) | ||||||
| 7 | Sec. 7.9. Study of demographic data. | ||||||
| 8 | (a) At least once every 2 years, the Department shall | ||||||
| 9 | employ an independent firm that is experienced in demographic | ||||||
| 10 | analysis to conduct a demographic study of lottery players in | ||||||
| 11 | the State. The study must include the income, age, sex, race, | ||||||
| 12 | education, and frequency of participation of the players. | ||||||
| 13 | (b) The Director shall report the results of the | ||||||
| 14 | demographic study under this Section to the Governor and to the | ||||||
| 15 | General Assembly before the convening of the regular | ||||||
| 16 | legislative session that immediately follows the completion of | ||||||
| 17 | the study. | ||||||
| 18 | (20 ILCS 1605/27.5 new) | ||||||
| 19 | Sec. 27.5. No rulemaking authority. Notwithstanding any | ||||||
| 20 | other provision of this Act or any other rulemaking authority | ||||||
| 21 | that may exist, on and after the effective date of this | ||||||
| 22 | amendatory Act of the 95th General Assembly, neither the | ||||||
| |||||||
| |||||||
| 1 | Governor nor any agency or agency head under the jurisdiction | ||||||
| 2 | of the Governor has any authority to make or promulgate rules | ||||||
| 3 | to implement or enforce the provisions of this Act. If, | ||||||
| 4 | however, the Governor believes that rules are necessary to | ||||||
| 5 | implement or enforce the provisions of this Act, the Governor | ||||||
| 6 | may suggest rules to the General Assembly by filing them with | ||||||
| 7 | the Clerk of the House and Secretary of the Senate and by | ||||||
| 8 | requesting that the General Assembly authorize such rulemaking | ||||||
| 9 | by law, enact those suggested rules into law, or take any other | ||||||
| 10 | appropriate action in the General Assembly's discretion. | ||||||
| 11 | Nothing contained in this Act shall be interpreted to grant | ||||||
| 12 | rulemaking authority under any other Illinois statute where | ||||||
| 13 | such authority is not otherwise explicitly given. For the | ||||||
| 14 | purposes of this Act, "rules" is given the meaning contained in | ||||||
| 15 | Section 1-70 of the Illinois Administrative Procedure Act, and | ||||||
| 16 | "agency" and "agency head" are given the meanings contained in | ||||||
| 17 | Sections 1-20 and 1-25 of the Illinois Administrative Procedure | ||||||
| 18 | Act to the extent that such definitions apply to agencies or | ||||||
| 19 | agency heads under the jurisdiction of the Governor.
| ||||||
| 20 | Section 99. Effective date. This Act takes effect upon | ||||||
| 21 | becoming law.
