|
| 7 | | WHEREAS, The Task Force was to consider, if a concealed |
| 8 | | carry law is passed in Illinois, how public safety could be |
| 9 | | maintained, whether a change in the law would create a need for |

| 11 | | information campaign about a concealed carry law would be |
| 12 | | appropriate; and
|
| 13 | | WHEREAS, The Task Force was to report its findings and |
| 14 | | recommendations to the General Assembly on or before March 1, |
| 15 | | 2012; and
