RESOLUTIONS
The following resolutions were offered and placed in the Committee
on Rules.
HOUSE RESOLUTION 240
Offered by Representative Dart:
WHEREAS, The adult female population in prisons in the State of
Illinois was 2,892 in 2000, a 161.2 percent increase over the past ten
years; and
WHEREAS, Of this population less than 30 percent of these female
prisoners were incarcerated for committing violent crimes; and
WHEREAS, Cook County Jail currently houses about 1,200 women on any
given day, and of this population approximately 90 percent are charged
with non-violent crimes; and
WHEREAS, In prisons in the State of Illinois, 80 percent of women
are mothers and almost 50 percent have children under five years of
age; and
WHEREAS, Each year at least 25,000 children in the State of
Illinois are impacted by maternal incarceration; and
WHEREAS, An estimated 80 percent of all incarcerated women in the
State of Illinois suffer from substance abuse problems; the State of
Illinois can place only 12 percent of all incarcerated women into its
substance abuse programs; and
WHEREAS, It is a known fact that drug addiction causes crime,
destroys the family structure, creates havoc in neighborhoods, and
leaves paths of destruction in its wake; individuals convicted of
crimes who have not received meaningful treatment while incarcerated
continue to commit crimes; and
WHEREAS, Community-based alternatives to incarceration for women
convicted of non-violent offenses would allow children to stay with
their mothers while their mothers receive appropriate treatment; with
the appropriate treatment the mothers would be less likely to commit
additional offenses and would be able to re-enter society as tax-paying
citizens; in addition, their children would be less likely to become
the next generation of incarcerated individuals; therefore, be it
23 [April 26, 2001]
RESOLVED, BY THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES OF THE NINETY-SECOND

WHEREAS, Many school districts have difficulty recruiting and
retaining high-quality teachers and administrators for low-performing
schools, for pupils with special needs, and for schools serving rural
areas or large populations of pupils from low-income and minority
families; and

least once every 18 months and shall be assigned to a dentist for such
dental care and treatment as is necessary.
All medications administered to recipients shall be administered
only by those persons who are legally qualified to do so by the laws of
the State of Illinois. Medication shall not be prescribed until a
physical and mental examination of the recipient has been completed.
If, in the clinical judgment of a physician, it is necessary to
administer medication to a recipient before the completion of the
physical and mental examination, he may prescribe such medication but
he must file a report with the facility director setting forth the
reasons for prescribing such medication within 24 hours of the
prescription. A copy of the report shall be part of the recipient's
record.
No later than January 1, 2002, the Department shall adopt a model
protocol and forms for recording all patient diagnosis, care, and
treatment at every facility under the jurisdiction of the Department.
The model protocol and forms shall be used by each facility unless the
Department determines that equivalent alternatives justify an
exemption.
Every facility under the jurisdiction of the Department shall
maintain a copy of each report of suspected abuse or neglect of the
patient. Copies of those reports shall be made available to the State
Auditor General in connection with his biennial program audit of the
facility as required by Section 3-2 of the Illinois State Auditing Act.
No later than January 1, 2002, every facility under the
jurisdiction of the Department and all services provided in those
facilities shall comply with all of the applicable standards adopted by
the Social Security Administration under Subchapter XVIII (Medicare) of
the Social Security Act (42 U.S.C. 1395 - 1395ccc), if the facility and
services may be eligible for federal financial participation under that
federal law.

(20 ILCS 1705/15) (from Ch. 91 1/2, par. 100-15)
Sec. 15. Before any person is released from a facility operated by
the State pursuant to an absolute discharge or a conditional discharge
from hospitalization under this Act, the facility director of the
facility in which such person is hospitalized shall determine that such
person is not currently in need of hospitalization and:
(a) is able to live independently in the community; or
(b) requires further oversight and supervisory care for which
arrangements have been made with responsible relatives or
supervised residential program approved by the Department; or
(c) requires further personal care or general oversight as
defined by the Nursing Home Care Act, for which placement
arrangements have been made with a suitable family home or other
licensed facility approved by the Department under this Section; or
(d) requires community mental health services for which
arrangements have been made with a suitable community mental health
provider in accordance with criteria, standards, and procedures
promulgated by rule. The suitable community mental health provider
shall be selected from among the Department's contractual
designees.
Such determination shall be made in writing and shall become a part
of the facility record of such absolutely or conditionally discharged
person. When the determination indicates that the condition of the
person to be granted an absolute discharge or a conditional discharge
is described under subparagraph (c) or (d) of this Section, the name
and address of the continuing care facility or home to which such
person is to be released shall be entered in the facility record.
Where a discharge from a mental health facility is made under
subparagraph (c), the Department shall assign the person so discharged
to an existing community based not-for-profit agency for participation
in day activities suitable to the person's needs, such as but not
limited to social and vocational rehabilitation, and other
recreational, educational and financial activities unless the community
based not-for-profit agency is unable unqualified to accept such
assignment. Where the clientele of any not-for-profit agency increases
as a result of assignments under this amendatory Act of 2001 1977 by
more than 3% over the prior year, the Department shall fully reimburse
such agency for the increased costs of providing services to such
persons in excess of such 3% increase. The Department shall keep
written records detailing how many persons have been assigned to a
community based not-for-profit agency and how many persons were not so
assigned because the community based agency was unable to accept the
assignments, in accordance with criteria, standards, and procedures
promulgated by rule. Whenever a community based agency is found to be
unable to accept the assignments, the name of the agency and the reason
for the finding shall be included in the report.
Insofar as desirable in the interests of the former recipient, the
facility, program or home in which the discharged person is to be
placed shall be located in or near the community in which the person
resided prior to hospitalization or in the community in which the
person's family or nearest next of kin presently reside. Placement of
the discharged person in facilities, programs or homes located outside
of this State shall not be made by the Department unless there are no
appropriate facilities, programs or homes available within this State.
Out-of-state placements shall be subject to return of recipients so
placed upon the availability of facilities, programs or homes within
this State to accommodate these recipients, except where placement in a
contiguous state results in locating a recipient in a facility or
program closer to the recipient's home or family. If an appropriate
facility or program becomes available equal to or closer to the
recipient's home or family, the recipient shall be returned to and
placed at the appropriate facility or program within this State.
To place any person who is under a program of the Department at
board in a suitable family home or in such other facility or program as
the Department may consider desirable. The Department may place in
33 [April 26, 2001]
licensed nursing homes, sheltered care homes, or homes for the aged
those persons whose behavioral manifestations and medical and nursing
care needs are such as to be substantially indistinguishable from
persons already living in such facilities. Prior to any placement by
the Department under this Section, a determination shall be made by the
personnel of the Department, as to the capability and suitability of
such facility to adequately meet the needs of the person to be
discharged. When specialized programs are necessary in order to enable
persons in need of supervised living to develop and improve in the
community, the Department shall place such persons only in specialized
residential care facilities which shall meet Department standards
including restricted admission policy, special staffing and programming
for social and vocational rehabilitation, in addition to the
requirements of the appropriate State licensing agency. The Department
shall not place any new person in a facility the license of which has
been revoked or not renewed on grounds of inadequate programming,
staffing, or medical or adjunctive services, regardless of the pendency
of an action for administrative review regarding such revocation or
failure to renew. Before the Department may transfer any person to a
licensed nursing home, sheltered care home or home for the aged or
place any person in a specialized residential care facility the
Department shall notify the person to be transferred, or a responsible
relative of such person, in writing, at least 30 days before the
proposed transfer, with respect to all the relevant facts concerning
such transfer, except in cases of emergency when such notice is not
required. If either the person to be transferred or a responsible
relative of such person objects to such transfer, in writing to the
Department, at any time after receipt of notice and before the
transfer, the facility director of the facility in which the person was
a recipient shall immediately schedule a hearing at the facility with
the presence of the facility director, the person who objected to such
proposed transfer, and a psychiatrist who is familiar with the record
of the person to be transferred. Such person to be transferred or a
responsible relative may be represented by such counsel or interested
party as he may appoint, who may present such testimony with respect to
the proposed transfer. Testimony presented at such hearing shall become
a part of the facility record of the person-to-be-transferred. The
record of testimony shall be held in the person-to-be-transferred's
record in the central files of the facility. If such hearing is held a
transfer may only be implemented, if at all, in accordance with the
results of such hearing. Within 15 days after such hearing the facility
director shall deliver his findings based on the record of the case and
the testimony presented at the hearing, by registered or certified
mail, to the parties to such hearing. The findings of the facility
director shall be deemed a final administrative decision of the
Department. For purposes of this Section, "case of emergency" means
those instances in which the health of the person to be transferred is
imperiled and the most appropriate mental health care or medical care
is available at a licensed nursing home, sheltered care home or home
for the aged or a specialized residential care facility.
Prior to placement of any person in a facility under this Section
the Department shall ensure that an appropriate training plan for staff
is provided by the facility. Said training may include instruction and
demonstration by Department personnel qualified in the area of mental
illness or mental retardation, as applicable to the person to be
placed. Training may be given both at the facility from which the
recipient is transferred and at the facility receiving the recipient,
and may be available on a continuing basis subsequent to placement. In
a facility providing services to former Department recipients, training
shall be available as necessary for facility staff. Such training will
be on a continuing basis as the needs of the facility and recipients
change and further training is required.
The Department shall not place any person in a facility which does
not have appropriately trained staff in sufficient numbers to
accommodate the recipient population already at the facility. As a
condition of further or future placements of persons, the Department
[April 26, 2001] 34
shall require the employment of additional trained staff members at the
facility where said persons are to be placed. The Secretary, or his or
her designate, shall establish written guidelines for placement of
persons in facilities under this Act. The Department shall keep written
records detailing which facilities have been determined to have
appropriately trained staff, which facilities have been determined not
to have such staff, and all training which it has provided or required
under this Section.
Bills for the support for a person boarded out shall be payable
monthly out of the proper maintenance funds and shall be audited as any
other accounts of the Department. If a person is placed in a facility
or program outside the Department, the Department may pay the actual
costs of residence, treatment or maintenance in such facility and may
collect such actual costs or a portion thereof from the recipient or
the estate of a person placed in accordance with this Section.
Other than those placed in a family home the Department shall cause
all persons who are placed in a facility, as defined by the Nursing
Home Care Act, or in designated community living situations or
programs, to be visited at least once during the first month following
placement, and once every month thereafter for the first year following
placement when indicated, but at least quarterly. After the first year,
visits shall be made at least once per year for as long as the
placement continues. If a long term care facility has periodic care
plan conferences, the visitor may participate in those conferences.
Visits shall be made by qualified and trained Department personnel, or
their designee, in the area of mental health or developmental
disabilities applicable to the person visited, and shall be made on a
more frequent basis when indicated. The Department may not use as
designee any personnel connected with or responsible to the
representatives of any facility in which persons who have been
transferred under this Section are placed. In the course of such
visit there shall be consideration of the following areas, but not
limited thereto: effects of transfer on physical and mental health of
the person, sufficiency of nursing care and medical coverage required
by the person, sufficiency of staff personnel and ability to provide
basic care for the person, social, recreational and programmatic
activities available for the person, and other appropriate aspects of
the person's environment.
A report containing the above observations shall be made to the
Department and to any other appropriate agency subsequent to each
visitation. The report shall contain a detailed assessment of whether
the recipient is receiving necessary services in the least restrictive
environment. If the recipient is not receiving those services, the
Department shall either require that the facility modify the treatment
plan to ensure that those services are provided or make arrangements
necessary to provide those services elsewhere. At the conclusion of one
year following absolute or conditional discharge, or a longer period of
time if required by the Department, the Department may terminate the
visitation requirements of this Section as to a person placed in
accordance with this Section, by filing a written statement of
termination setting forth reasons to substantiate the termination of
visitations in the person's file, and sending a copy thereof to the
person, and to his guardian or next of kin.
Upon the complaint of any person placed in accordance with this
Section or any responsible citizen or upon discovery that such person
has been abused, neglected, or improperly cared for, or that the
placement does not provide the type of care required by the recipient's
current condition, the Department immediately shall investigate, and
determine if the well-being, health, care, or safety of any person is
affected by any of the above occurrences, and if any one of the above
occurrences is verified, the Department shall remove such person at
once to a facility of the Department or to another facility outside the
Department, provided such person's needs can be met at said facility.
The Department may also provide any person placed in accordance with
this Section who is without available funds, and who is permitted to
engage in employment outside the facility, such sums for the
35 [April 26, 2001]
transportation, and other expenses as may be needed by him until he
receives his wages for such employment.
The Department shall promulgate rules and regulations governing the
purchase of care for persons who are wards of or who are receiving
services from the Department. Such rules and regulations shall apply
to all monies expended by any agency of the State of Illinois for
services rendered by any person, corporate entity, agency, governmental
agency or political subdivision whether public or private outside of
the Department whether payment is made through a contractual, per-diem
or other arrangement. No funds shall be paid to any person,
corporation, agency, governmental entity or political subdivision
without compliance with such rules and regulations.
The rules and regulations governing purchase of care shall describe
categories and types of service deemed appropriate for purchase by the
Department.
Any provider of services under this Act may elect to receive
payment for those services, and the Department is authorized to arrange
for that payment, by means of direct deposit transmittals to the
service provider's account maintained at a bank, savings and loan
association, or other financial institution. The financial institution
shall be approved by the Department, and the deposits shall be in
accordance with rules and regulations adopted by the Department.

Section 10. The Hospital Licensing Act is amended by adding
Section 6.19 as follows:
(210 ILCS 5/6.19 new)
Sec. 6.19. Use of restraints. Each hospital licensed under this
Act must have a written policy to address the use of restraints and
seclusion in the hospital. The Department shall establish, by rule,
the provisions that the policy must include, which, to the extent
practicable, should be consistent with the requirements of the federal
Medicare program.
For freestanding psychiatric hospitals and psychiatric units in
general hospitals, restraints or seclusion shall only be ordered by
persons as authorized under the Mental Health and Developmental
Disabilities Code.
For general hospitals, excluding freestanding psychiatric hospitals
and psychiatric units in general hospitals, restraints or seclusion may
only be employed upon the written order of:
(1) a physician licensed to practice medicine in all its
branches;
(2) a physician assistant as authorized under the Physician
Assistant Practice Act of 1987 or an advanced practice nurse as
authorized under the Nursing and Advanced Practice Nursing Act; or
(3) a registered nurse, provided that the medical staff of the
hospital has adopted a policy authorizing such practice and
specifying the requirements that a registered nurse must satisfy to
order the use of restraints or seclusion.
Section 15. The Abused and Neglected Long Term Care Facility
Residents Reporting Act is amended by changing Sections 6.2, 6.3, 6.4,
6.5, 6.6, 6.7, and 6.8 as follows:
(210 ILCS 30/6.2) (from Ch. 111 1/2, par. 4166.2)
(Section scheduled to be repealed on January 1, 2002)
Sec. 6.2. Inspector General.
(a) The Governor shall appoint, and the Senate shall confirm, an
Inspector General. The Inspector General shall be appointed for a term
of 4 years and who shall function within the Department of Human
Services and report to the Secretary of Human Services and the
Governor. The Inspector General shall function independently within the
Department of Human Services with respect to the operations of the
office, including the performance of investigations and issuance of
findings and recommendations. The Inspector General shall
independently submit to the Governor any request for appropriations
necessary for the ordinary and contingent expenses of the Office of
Inspector General, and appropriations for that office shall be separate
from the Department of Human Services. The Inspector General shall
[April 26, 2001] 36
investigate reports of suspected abuse or neglect (as those terms are
defined in Section 3 of this Act) of patients or residents in any
mental health or developmental disabilities facility operated by the
Department of Human Services and shall have authority to investigate
and take immediate action on reports of abuse or neglect of recipients,
whether patients or residents, in any mental health or developmental
disabilities facility or program that is licensed or certified by the
Department of Human Services (as successor to the Department of Mental
Health and Developmental Disabilities) or that is funded by the
Department of Human Services (as successor to the Department of Mental
Health and Developmental Disabilities) and is not licensed or certified
by any agency of the State. At the specific, written request of an
agency of the State other than the Department of Human Services (as
successor to the Department of Mental Health and Developmental
Disabilities), the Inspector General may cooperate in investigating
reports of abuse and neglect of persons with mental illness or persons
with developmental disabilities. The Inspector General shall have no
supervision over or involvement in routine, programmatic, licensure, or
certification operations of the Department of Human Services or any of
its funded agencies.
The Inspector General shall promulgate rules establishing minimum
requirements for reporting allegations of abuse and neglect and
initiating, conducting, and completing investigations. The promulgated
rules shall clearly set forth that in instances where 2 or more State
agencies could investigate an allegation of abuse or neglect, the
Inspector General shall not conduct an investigation that is redundant
to an investigation conducted by another State agency. The rules shall
establish criteria for determining, based upon the nature of the
allegation, the appropriate method of investigation, which may include,
but need not be limited to, site visits, telephone contacts, or
requests for written responses from agencies. The rules shall also
clarify how the Office of the Inspector General shall interact with the
licensing unit of the Department of Human Services in investigations of
allegations of abuse or neglect. Any allegations or investigations of
reports made pursuant to this Act shall remain confidential until a
final report is completed. The resident or patient who allegedly was
abused or neglected and his or her legal guardian shall be informed by
the facility or agency of the report of alleged abuse or neglect. Final
reports regarding unsubstantiated or unfounded allegations shall remain
confidential, except that final reports may be disclosed pursuant to
Section 6 of this Act.
The Inspector General shall be appointed for a term of 4 years.
(b) The Inspector General shall within 24 hours after receiving a
report of suspected abuse or neglect determine whether the evidence
indicates that any possible criminal act has been committed. If he
determines that a possible criminal act has been committed, or that
special expertise is required in the investigation, he shall
immediately notify the Department of State Police. The Department of
State Police shall investigate any report indicating a possible murder,
rape, or other felony. All investigations conducted by the Inspector
General shall be conducted in a manner designed to ensure the
preservation of evidence for possible use in a criminal prosecution.
(b-5) The Inspector General shall make a determination to accept
or reject a preliminary report of the investigation of alleged abuse or
neglect based on established investigative procedures. The facility or
agency may request clarification or reconsideration based on additional
information. For cases where the allegation of abuse or neglect is
substantiated, the Inspector General shall require the facility or
agency to submit a written response. The written response from a
facility or agency shall address in a concise and reasoned manner the
actions that the agency or facility will take or has taken to protect
the resident or patient from abuse or neglect, prevent reoccurrences,
and eliminate problems identified and shall include implementation and
completion dates for all such action.
(c) The Inspector General shall, within 10 calendar days after the
transmittal date of a completed investigation where abuse or neglect is
37 [April 26, 2001]
substantiated or administrative action is recommended, provide a
complete report on the case to the Secretary of Human Services and to
the agency in which the abuse or neglect is alleged to have happened.
The complete report shall include a written response from the agency or
facility operated by the State to the Inspector General that addresses
in a concise and reasoned manner the actions that the agency or
facility will take or has taken to protect the resident or patient from
abuse or neglect, prevent reoccurrences, and eliminate problems
identified and shall include implementation and completion dates for
all such action. The Secretary of Human Services shall accept or
reject the response and establish how the Department will determine
whether the facility or program followed the approved response. The
Secretary may require Department personnel to visit the facility or
agency for training, technical assistance, programmatic, licensure, or
certification purposes. Administrative action, including sanctions,
may be applied should the Secretary reject the response or should the
facility or agency fail to follow the approved response. Within 30 days
after the Secretary has approved a response, the facility or agency
making the response shall provide an implementation report to the
Inspector General on the status of the corrective action implemented.
Within 60 days after receiving the implementation report, the Inspector
General shall conduct an investigation, which may include, but need not
be limited to, site visits, telephone contacts, or requests for written
documentation from the facility or agency, to determine whether the
facility or agency is in compliance with the approved response. The
facility or agency shall inform the resident or patient and the legal
guardian whether the reported allegation was substantiated,
unsubstantiated, or unfounded. There shall be an appeals process for
any person or agency that is subject to any action based on a
recommendation or recommendations.
(d) The Inspector General may recommend to the Departments of
Public Health and Human Services sanctions to be imposed against mental
health and developmental disabilities facilities under the jurisdiction
of the Department of Human Services for the protection of residents,
including appointment of on-site monitors or receivers, transfer or
relocation of residents, and closure of units. The Inspector General
may seek the assistance of the Attorney General or any of the several
State's attorneys in imposing such sanctions. Whenever the Inspector
General issues any recommendations to the Secretary of Human Services,
the Secretary shall provide a written response.
(e) The Inspector General shall establish and conduct periodic
training programs for Department of Human Services employees concerning
the prevention and reporting of neglect and abuse.
(f) The Inspector General shall at all times be granted access to
any mental health or developmental disabilities facility operated by
the Department of Human Services, shall establish and conduct
unannounced site visits to those facilities at least once annually, and
shall be granted access, for the purpose of investigating a report of
abuse or neglect, to the records of the Department of Human Services
and to any facility or program funded by the Department of Human
Services that is subject under the provisions of this Section to
investigation by the Inspector General for a report of abuse or
neglect.
(g) Nothing in this Section shall limit investigations by the
Department of Human Services that may otherwise be required by law or
that may be necessary in that Department's capacity as the central
administrative authority responsible for the operation of State mental
health and developmental disability facilities.
(h) This Section is repealed on January 1, 2002.

Section 20. The Nursing Home Care Act is amended by changing
Sections 2-106 and 2-106.1 as follows:
(210 ILCS 45/2-106) (from Ch. 111 1/2, par. 4152-106)
Sec. 2-106. (a) For purposes of this Act, (i) a physical restraint
is any manual method or physical or mechanical device, material, or
equipment attached or adjacent to a resident's body that the resident
cannot remove easily and restricts freedom of movement or normal access
to one's body; (ii) a chemical restraint is any drug used for
discipline or convenience and not required to treat medical symptoms.
The Department shall by rule, designate certain devices as restraints,
including at least all those devices which have been determined to be
restraints by the United States Department of Health and Human Services
in interpretive guidelines issued for the purposes of administering
Titles 18 and 19 of the Social Security Acts.
(b) Neither restraints nor confinements shall be employed for the
purpose of punishment or for the convenience of any facility personnel.
No restraints or confinements shall be employed except as ordered by a
physician who documents the need for such restraints or confinements in
the resident's clinical record. Whenever a resident is restrained, a
member of the facility staff shall remain with the resident at all
times unless the resident has been confined. A resident who is
restrained and confined shall be observed by a qualified person as
often as is clinically appropriate but in no event less often than once
every 15 minutes.
(c) A restraint may be used only with the informed consent of the
resident, the resident's guardian, or other authorized representative.
[April 26, 2001] 40
A restraint may be used only for specific periods, if it is the least
restrictive means necessary to attain and maintain the resident's
highest practicable physical, mental or psychosocial well-being,
including brief periods of time to provide necessary life-saving
treatment. A restraint may be used only after consultation with
appropriate health professionals, such as occupational or physical
therapists, and a trial of less restrictive measures has led to the
determination that the use of less restrictive measures would not
attain or maintain the resident's highest practicable physical, mental
or psychosocial well-being. However, if the resident needs emergency
care, restraints may be used for brief periods to permit medical
treatment to proceed unless the facility has notice that the resident
has previously made a valid refusal of the treatment in question.
(d) A restraint may be applied only by a person trained in the
application of the particular type of restraint.
(e) Whenever a period of use of a restraint is initiated, the
resident shall be advised of his or her right to have a person or
organization of his or her choosing, including the Guardianship and
Advocacy Commission, notified of the use of the restraint. A recipient
who is under guardianship may request that a person or organization of
his or her choosing be notified of the restraint, whether or not the
guardian approves the notice. If the resident so chooses, the facility
shall make the notification within 24 hours, including any information
about the period of time that the restraint is to be used. Whenever the
Guardianship and Advocacy Commission is notified that a resident has
been restrained, it shall contact the resident to determine the
circumstances of the restraint and whether further action is warranted.
(f) Whenever a restraint is used on a resident whose primary mode
of communication is sign language, the resident shall be permitted to
have his or her hands free from restraint for brief periods each hour,
except when this freedom may result in physical harm to the resident or
others.
(g) The requirements of this Section are intended to control in
any conflict with the requirements of Sections 1-126 and 2-108 of the
Mental Health and Developmental Disabilities Code.
(Source: P.A. 88-413.)
(210 ILCS 45/2-106.1)
Sec. 2-106.1. Drug treatment.
(a) A resident shall not be given unnecessary drugs. An
unnecessary drug is any drug used in an excessive dose, including in
duplicative therapy; for excessive duration; without adequate
monitoring; without adequate indications for its use; or in the
presence of adverse consequences that indicate the drugs should be
reduced or discontinued. The Department shall adopt, by rule, the
standards for unnecessary drugs contained in interpretive guidelines
issued by the United States Department of Health and Human Services for
the purposes of administering titles 18 and 19 of the Social Security
Act.
(b) Psychotropic medication shall not be prescribed without the
informed consent of the resident, the resident's guardian, or other
authorized representative. "Psychotropic medication" means medication
that is used for or listed as used for antipsychotic, antidepressant,
antimanic, or antianxiety behavior modification or behavior management
purposes in the latest editions of the AMA Drug Evaluations or the
Physician's Desk Reference.
(c) The requirements of this Section are intended to control in a
conflict with the requirements of Sections 2-102 1-102 and 2-107.2 of
the Mental Health and Developmental Disabilities Code with respect to
the administration of psychotropic medication.

AMENDMENT NO. 2 TO SENATE BILL 624
AMENDMENT NO. 2. Amend Senate Bill 624, AS AMENDED, by inserting
immediately below the last line of Section 25 the following:
"Section 90. The Unified Code of Corrections is amended by
changing Section 5-2-4 as follows:
(730 ILCS 5/5-2-4) (from Ch. 38, par. 1005-2-4)
Sec. 5-2-4. Proceedings after Acquittal by Reason of Insanity.
(a) After a finding or verdict of not guilty by reason of insanity
under Sections 104-25, 115-3 or 115-4 of The Code of Criminal Procedure
of 1963, the defendant shall be ordered to the Department of Human
Services for an evaluation as to whether he is subject to involuntary
admission or in need of mental health services. The order shall
specify whether the evaluation shall be conducted on an inpatient or
outpatient basis. If the evaluation is to be conducted on an inpatient
basis, the defendant shall be placed in a secure setting unless the
Court determines that there are compelling reasons why such placement
is not necessary. After the evaluation and during the period of time
required to determine the appropriate placement, the defendant shall
remain in jail. Upon completion of the placement process the sheriff
shall be notified and shall transport the defendant to the designated
facility.
The Department shall provide the Court with a report of its
evaluation within 30 days of the date of this order. The Court shall
hold a hearing as provided under the Mental Health and Developmental
Disabilities Code to determine if the individual is: (a) subject to
involuntary admission; (b) in need of mental health services on an
inpatient basis; (c) in need of mental health services on an outpatient
basis; (d) a person not in need of mental health services. The Court
shall enter its findings.
If the defendant is found to be subject to involuntary admission or
in need of mental health services on an inpatient care basis, the Court
shall order the defendant to the Department of Human Services. The
defendant shall be placed in a secure setting unless the Court
determines that there are compelling reasons why such placement is not
necessary. Such defendants placed in a secure setting shall not be
permitted outside the facility's housing unit unless escorted or
accompanied by personnel of the Department of Human Services or with
the prior approval of the Court for unsupervised on-grounds privileges
as provided herein. Any defendant placed in a secure setting pursuant
to this Section, transported to court hearings or other necessary
appointments off facility grounds by personnel of the Department of
Human Services, may be placed in security devices or otherwise secured
during the period of transportation to assure secure transport of the
defendant and the safety of Department of Human Services personnel and
others. These security measures shall not constitute restraint as
defined in the Mental Health and Developmental Disabilities Code. If
the defendant is found to be in need of mental health services, but not
43 [April 26, 2001]
on an inpatient care basis, the Court shall conditionally release the
defendant, under such conditions as set forth in this Section as will
reasonably assure the defendant's satisfactory progress in treatment or
rehabilitation and the safety of the defendant or others. If the Court
finds the person not in need of mental health services, then the Court
shall order the defendant discharged from custody.
(1) Definitions: For the purposes of this Section:
(A) "Subject to involuntary admission" means: a defendant
has been found not guilty by reason of insanity; and
(i) who is mentally ill and who because of his mental
illness is reasonably expected to inflict serious physical
harm upon himself or another in the near future; or
(ii) who is mentally ill and who because of his illness
is unable to provide for his basic physical needs so as to
guard himself from serious harm.
(B) "In need of mental health services on an inpatient basis"
means: a defendant who has been found not guilty by reason of
insanity who is not subject to involuntary admission but who is
reasonably expected to inflict serious physical harm upon himself
or another and who would benefit from inpatient care or is in need
of inpatient care.
(C) "In need of mental health services on an outpatient
basis" means: a defendant who has been found not guilty by reason
of insanity who is not subject to involuntary admission or in need
of mental health services on an inpatient basis, but is in need of
outpatient care, drug and/or alcohol rehabilitation programs,
community adjustment programs, individual, group, or family
therapy, or chemotherapy.
(D) "Conditional Release" means: the release from either the
custody of the Department of Human Services or the custody of the
Court of a person who has been found not guilty by reason of
insanity under such conditions as the Court may impose which
reasonably assure the defendant's satisfactory progress in
treatment or habilitation and the safety of the defendant and
others. The Court shall consider such terms and conditions which
may include, but need not be limited to, outpatient care, alcoholic
and drug rehabilitation programs, community adjustment programs,
individual, group, family, and chemotherapy, periodic checks with
the legal authorities and/or the Department of Human Services. The
Court may order the Department of Human Services to provide care to
any person conditionally released under this Section. The
Department may contract with any public or private agency in order
to discharge any responsibilities imposed under this Section. The
contracting process shall require services to be identified in a
treatment plan, the resource requirements to provide those
services, the parties responsible for providing those resources,
and the process for securing future treatment and supportive
service and resource needs. The Department shall monitor the
provision of services to persons conditionally released under this
Section and provide periodic reports to the Court concerning the
services and the condition of the defendant. Whenever a person is
conditionally released pursuant to this Section, the State's
Attorney for the county in which the hearing is held shall
designate in writing the name, telephone number, and address of a
person employed by him or her who shall be notified in the event
that either the reporting agency or the Department decide that the
conditional release of the defendant should be revoked or modified
pursuant to subsection (i) of this Section The person or facility
rendering the outpatient care shall be required to periodically
report to the Court on the progress of the defendant. Such
conditional release shall be for a period of five years. However,
unless the defendant, the person or facility rendering the
treatment, therapy, program or outpatient care, the Department or
the State's Attorney may petition petitions the Court for an
extension of the conditional release period for an additional 5
three years. Upon receipt of such a petition, the Court shall hold
[April 26, 2001] 44
a hearing consistent with the provisions of this paragraph (a) and
paragraph (f) of this Section, shall determine whether the
defendant should continue to be subject to the terms of conditional
release, and shall enter an order either extending the defendant's
period of conditional release for an a single additional 5 three
year period or discharging the defendant. Additional 5 year
periods of conditional release may be ordered following a hearing
as provided in this Section. However, in no event shall the
defendant's period of conditional release continue beyond the
maximum period of commitment ordered by the Court pursuant to
paragraph (b) of this Section exceed eight years. These provisions
for extension of conditional release shall only apply to defendants
conditionally released on or after the effective date of this
amendatory Act of the 92nd General Assembly July 1, 1979. However
the extension provisions of Public Act 83-1449 apply only to
defendants charged with a forcible felony.
(E) "Facility director" means the chief officer of a mental
health or developmental disabilities facility or his or her
designee or the supervisor of a program of treatment or
habilitation or his or her designee. "Designee" may include a
physician, clinical psychologist, social worker, or nurse.
(b) If the Court finds the defendant subject to involuntary
admission or in need of mental health services on an inpatient basis,
the admission, detention, care, treatment or habilitation, treatment
plans, review proceedings, including review of treatment and treatment
plans, and discharge of the defendant after such order shall be under
the Mental Health and Developmental Disabilities Code, except that the
initial order for admission of a defendant acquitted of a felony by
reason of insanity shall be for an indefinite period of time. Such
period of commitment shall not exceed the maximum length of time that
the defendant would have been required to serve, less credit for good
behavior, before becoming eligible for release had he been convicted of
and received the maximum sentence for the most serious crime for which
he has been acquitted by reason of insanity. The Court shall determine
the maximum period of commitment by an appropriate order. During this
period of time, the defendant shall not be permitted to be in the
community in any manner, including but not limited to off-grounds
privileges, with or without escort by personnel of the Department of
Human Services, unsupervised on-grounds privileges, discharge or
conditional or temporary release, except by a plan as provided in this
Section. In no event shall a defendant's continued unauthorized
absence be a basis for discharge. Not more than 30 days after
admission and every 60 days thereafter so long as the initial order
remains in effect, the facility director shall file a treatment plan
report with the court and forward a copy of the treatment plan report
to the clerk of the court, the State's Attorney, and the defendant's
attorney, if the defendant is represented by counsel, or to a person
authorized by the defendant under the Mental Health and Developmental
Disabilities Confidentiality Act to be sent a copy of the report. The
report shall include an opinion as to whether the defendant is
currently subject to involuntary admission, in need of mental health
services on an inpatient basis, or in need of mental health services on
an outpatient basis. The report shall also summarize the basis for
those findings and provide a current summary of the following items
from the treatment plan: (1) an assessment of the defendant's treatment
needs, (2) a description of the services recommended for treatment, (3)
the goals of each type of element of service, (4) an anticipated
timetable for the accomplishment of the goals, and (5) a designation of
the qualified professional responsible for the implementation of the
plan. The report may also include unsupervised on-grounds privileges,
off-grounds privileges (with or without escort by personnel of the
Department of Human Services), home visits and participation in work
programs, but only where such privileges have been approved by specific
court order, which order may include such conditions on the defendant
as the Court may deem appropriate and necessary to reasonably assure
the defendant's satisfactory progress in treatment and the safety of
45 [April 26, 2001]
the defendant and others.
(c) Every defendant acquitted of a felony by reason of insanity
and subsequently found to be subject to involuntary admission or in
need of mental health services shall be represented by counsel in all
proceedings under this Section and under the Mental Health and
Developmental Disabilities Code.
(1) The Court shall appoint as counsel the public defender or
an attorney licensed by this State.
(2) Upon filing with the Court of a verified statement of
legal services rendered by the private attorney appointed pursuant
to paragraph (1) of this subsection, the Court shall determine a
reasonable fee for such services. If the defendant is unable to
pay the fee, the Court shall enter an order upon the State to pay
the entire fee or such amount as the defendant is unable to pay
from funds appropriated by the General Assembly for that purpose.
(d) When the facility director determines that:
(1) the defendant is no longer subject to involuntary
admission or in need of mental health services on an inpatient
basis; and
(2) the defendant may be conditionally released because he or
she is still in need of mental health services or that the
defendant may be discharged as not in need of any mental health
services; or
(3) the defendant no longer requires placement in a secure
setting;
the facility director shall give written notice to the Court, State's
Attorney and defense attorney. Such notice shall set forth in detail
the basis for the recommendation of the facility director, and specify
clearly the recommendations, if any, of the facility director,
concerning conditional release. Any recommendation for conditional
release shall include an evaluation of the defendant's need for
psychotropic medication, what provisions should be made, if any, to
insure that the defendant will continue to receive psychotropic
medication following discharge and what provisions should be made to
assure the safety of the defendant and others in the event the
defendant is no longer receiving psychotropic medication. Within 30
days of the notification by the facility director, the Court shall set
a hearing and make a finding as to whether the defendant is:
(i) subject to involuntary admission; or
(ii) in need of mental health services in the form of
inpatient care; or
(iii) in need of mental health services but not subject to
involuntary admission or inpatient care; or
(iv) no longer in need of mental health services; or
(v) no longer requires placement in a secure setting.
Upon finding by the Court, the Court shall enter its findings and
such appropriate order as provided in subsection (a) of this Section.
(e) A defendant admitted pursuant to this Section, or any person
on his behalf, may file a petition for treatment plan review, transfer
to a non-secure setting within the Department of Human Services or
discharge or conditional release under the standards of this Section in
the Court which rendered the verdict. Upon receipt of a petition for
treatment plan review, transfer to a non-secure setting or discharge or
conditional release, the Court shall set a hearing to be held within
120 days. Thereafter, no new petition may be filed for 120 days
without leave of the Court.
(f) The Court shall direct that notice of the time and place of
the hearing be served upon the defendant, the facility director, the
State's Attorney, and the defendant's attorney. If requested by either
the State or the defense or if the Court feels it is appropriate, an
impartial examination of the defendant by a psychiatrist or clinical
psychologist as defined in Section 1-103 of the Mental Health and
Developmental Disabilities Code who is not in the employ of the
Department of Human Services shall be ordered, and the report
considered at the time of the hearing.
(g) The findings of the Court shall be established by clear and
[April 26, 2001] 46
convincing evidence. The burden of proof and the burden of going forth
with the evidence rest with the defendant or any person on the
defendant's behalf when a hearing is held to review the determination
of the facility director that the defendant should be transferred to a
non-secure setting, discharged, or conditionally released or when a
hearing is held to review a petition filed by or on behalf of the
defendant. The evidence shall be presented in open Court with the
right of confrontation and cross-examination.
(h) Before the Court orders that the defendant be discharged or
conditionally released, it shall order the facility director to
establish a discharge plan that includes a plan for the defendant's
shelter, support, and medication. If appropriate, the Court shall
order that the facility director establish a program to train the
defendant in self-medication under standards established by the
Department of Human Services. If the Court finds that the defendant is
no longer in need of mental health services it shall order the facility
director to discharge the defendant. If the Court finds that the
defendant is in need of mental health services, and no longer in need
of inpatient care, it shall order the facility director to release the
defendant under such conditions as the Court deems appropriate and as
provided by this Section. Such conditional release shall be imposed for
a period of five years and shall be subject to later modification by
the Court as provided by this Section. If the Court finds that the
defendant is subject to involuntary admission or in need of mental
health services on an inpatient basis, it shall order the facility
director not to discharge or release the defendant in accordance with
paragraph (b) of this Section.
(i) If within the period of the defendant's conditional release,
the State's Attorney determines that the defendant has not fulfilled
the conditions of his or her release, the State's Attorney may petition
the Court to revoke or modify the conditional release of the defendant.
Upon the filing of such petition the defendant may be remanded to the
custody of the Department, or to any other mental health facility
designated by the Department, pending the resolution of the petition.
Nothing in this Section shall prevent the emergency admission of a
defendant pursuant to Article VI of Chapter III of the Mental Health
and Developmental Disabilities Code or the voluntary admission of the
defendant pursuant to Article IV of Chapter III of the Mental Health
and Developmental Disabilities Code. If the Court determines, after
hearing evidence, that the defendant has not fulfilled the conditions
of release, the Court shall order a hearing to be held consistent with
the provisions of paragraph (f) and (g) of this Section. At such
hearing, if the Court finds that the defendant is subject to
involuntary admission or in need of mental health services on an
inpatient basis, it shall enter an order remanding him or her to the
Department of Human Services or other facility. If the defendant is
remanded to the Department of Human Services, he or she shall be placed
in a secure setting unless the Court determines that there are
compelling reasons that such placement is not necessary. If the Court
finds that the defendant continues to be in need of mental health
services but not on an inpatient basis, it may modify the conditions of
the original release in order to reasonably assure the defendant's
satisfactory progress in treatment and his or her safety and the safety
of others in accordance with the standards established in paragraph (1)
(D) of subsection (a). In no event shall such conditional release be
longer than eight years. Nothing in this Section shall limit a Court's
contempt powers or any other powers of a Court.
(j) An order of admission under this Section does not affect the
remedy of habeas corpus.
(k) In the event of a conflict between this Section and the Mental
Health and Developmental Disabilities Code or the Mental Health and
Developmental Disabilities Confidentiality Act, the provisions of this
Section shall govern.
(l) This amendatory Act shall apply to all persons who have been
found not guilty by reason of insanity and who are presently committed
to the Department of Mental Health and Developmental Disabilities (now
47 [April 26, 2001]
the Department of Human Services).
(m) The Clerk of the Court shall, after the entry of an order of
transfer to a non-secure setting of the Department of Human Services or
discharge or conditional release, transmit a certified copy of the
order to the Department of Human Services, and the sheriff of the
county from which the defendant was admitted. In cases where the
arrest of the defendant or the commission of the offense took place in
any municipality with a population of more than 25,000 persons, The
Clerk of the Court shall also transmit a certified copy of the order of
discharge or conditional release to the Illinois Department of State
Police, to the proper law enforcement agency for the said municipality
where the offense took place and to the sheriff of the county into
which the defendant is conditionally discharged. The Illinois
Department of State Police shall maintain a centralized record of
discharged or conditionally released defendants while they are under
court supervision for access and use of appropriate law enforcement
agencies provided the municipality has requested such notice in
writing.

(24) an offense in any other state the elements of which are
similar and bear a substantial relationship to any of the foregoing
offenses.
For the purpose of this subsection, "relative" shall include any
person, 21 years of age or over, other than the parent, who (i) is
currently related to the child in any of the following ways by blood or
adoption: grandparent, sibling, great-grandparent, uncle, aunt, nephew,
niece, first cousin, great-uncle, or great-aunt; or (ii) is the spouse
of such a relative; or (iii) is the child's step-father, step-mother,
or adult step-brother or step-sister; "relative" also includes a person
related in any of the foregoing ways to a sibling of a child, even
though the person is not related to the child, when the child and its
sibling are placed together with that person. A relative with whom a
child is placed pursuant to this subsection may, but is not required
to, apply for licensure as a foster family home pursuant to the Child
Care Act of 1969; provided, however, that as of July 1, 1995, foster
49 [April 26, 2001]
care payments shall be made only to licensed foster family homes
pursuant to the terms of Section 5 of this Act.
(c) In placing a child under this Act, the Department shall ensure
that the child's health, safety, and best interests are met in making a
family foster care placement. The Department shall consider the
individual needs of the child and the capacity of the prospective
foster or adoptive parents to meet the needs of the child. When a child
must be placed outside his or her home and cannot be immediately
returned to his or her parents or guardian, a comprehensive,
individualized assessment shall be performed of that child at which
time the needs of the child shall be determined. Only if race, color,
or national origin is identified as a legitimate factor in advancing
the child's best interests shall it be considered. Race, color, or
national origin shall not be routinely considered in making a placement
decision. The Department shall make special efforts for the diligent
recruitment of potential foster and adoptive families that reflect the
ethnic and racial diversity of the children for whom foster and
adoptive homes are needed. "Special efforts" shall include contacting
and working with community organizations and religious organizations
and may include contracting with those organizations, utilizing local
media and other local resources, and conducting outreach activities.
(c-1) At the time of placement, the Department shall consider
concurrent planning, as described in subsection (l-1) of Section 5, so
that permanency may occur at the earliest opportunity. Consideration
should be given so that if reunification fails or is delayed, the
placement made is the best available placement to provide permanency
for the child.
(d) The Department may accept gifts, grants, offers of services,
and other contributions to use in making special recruitment efforts.
(e) The Department in placing children in adoptive or foster care
homes may not, in any policy or practice relating to the placement of
children for adoption or foster care, discriminate against any child or
prospective adoptive or foster parent on the basis of race.

implement a written plan for placing children. The plan shall include
at least the following features:
(1) A plan for recruiting minority adoptive and foster
families. The plan shall include strategies for using existing
resources in minority communities, use of minority outreach staff
whenever possible, use of minority foster homes for placements
after birth and before adoption, and other techniques as
appropriate.
(2) A plan for training adoptive and foster families of
minority children.
(3) A plan for employing social workers in adoption and
foster care. The plan shall include staffing goals and objectives.
(4) A plan for ensuring that adoption and foster care workers
attend training offered or approved by the Department regarding the
State's goal of encouraging cultural diversity and the needs of
special needs children.
(5) A plan that includes policies and procedures for
determining for each child requiring placement outside of his or
her home, and who cannot be immediately returned to his or her
parents or guardian, the placement needs of that child. In the
rare instance when an individualized assessment identifies,
documents, and substantiates that race, color, or national origin
is a factor that needs to be considered in advancing a particular
child's best interests, it shall be considered in making a
placement.

(b) The Inspector General shall prepare and maintain written
records from the reporting source that shall contain the following
information to the extent known at the time the report is made: (1) the
names and addresses of the child and the person responsible for the
child's welfare; (2) the nature of the misconduct and the detriment
cause to the child's best interest; (3) the names of the persons or
agencies responsible for the alleged misconduct. Any investigation
conducted by the Inspector General pursuant to such information shall
not duplicate and shall be separate from the investigation mandated by
the Abused and Neglected Child Reporting Act. However, the Inspector
General may include the results of such investigation in reports
compiled under this Section. At the request of the reporting agent,
the Inspector General shall keep the identity of the reporting agent
strictly confidential from the operation of the Department, until the
Inspector General shall determine what recommendations shall be made
with regard to discipline or sanction of the Department employee,
service provider, or contractor, with the exception of suspected child
abuse or neglect which shall be handled consistent with the Abused and
Neglected Child Reporting Act and Section 35.5 of this Act. The
Department shall take whatever steps are necessary to assure that a
person making a report in good faith under this Section is not
adversely affected solely on the basis of having made such report.

55 [April 26, 2001]
Police, and where it is found that a vehicle reported recovered was
stolen in a County, City, Village or Town other than the County, City,
Village or Town in which it is recovered, the State Police shall
immediately notify the Sheriff, Superintendent of police, Chief of
police, or other police officer in command of the Sheriff's office or

of such vehicle requiring an identification number, the State Police
shall restore, restamp or reaffix the vehicle identification number
plate, or affix a new plate bearing the original manufacturer's vehicle
identification number on each such vehicle and on all necessary parts
of the vehicles. A vehicle identification number so affixed, restored,
restamped, reaffixed or replaced is not falsified, altered or forged
within the meaning of this Act.
(i) If a vehicle or part of any vehicle is found to have the
manufacturer's identification number removed, altered, defaced or
destroyed, the vehicle or part shall be seized by any law enforcement
agency having jurisdiction and held for the purpose of identification.
In the event that the manufacturer's identification number of a vehicle
or part cannot be identified, the vehicle or part shall be considered
contraband, and no right of property shall exist in any person owning,
leasing or possessing such property, unless the person owning, leasing
or possessing the vehicle or part acquired such without knowledge that
the manufacturer's vehicle identification number has been removed,
altered, defaced, falsified or destroyed.
Either the seizing law enforcement agency or the State's Attorney
of the county where the seizure occurred may make an application for an
order of forfeiture to the circuit court in the county of seizure. The
application for forfeiture shall be independent from any prosecution
arising out of the seizure and is not subject to any final
determination of such prosecution. The circuit court shall issue an
order forfeiting the property to the seizing law enforcement agency if
the court finds that the property did not at the time of seizure
possess a valid manufacturer's identification number and that the
original manufacturer's identification number cannot be ascertained.
The seizing law enforcement agency may:
(1) retain the forfeited property for official use; or
(2) sell the forfeited property and distribute the proceeds in
accordance with Section 4-211 of this Code, or dispose of the

forfeiture has been submitted to the circuit in the county of seizure
or (iii) the circuit court in the county of seizure has received from
the seizing law enforcement agency and has granted a petition to
extend, for a single 30 day period, the 45 days allowed for return of
the motorcycle. Except as provided in subsection (i-2), a motorcycle
returned to the person from whom it was seized must be returned in
essentially the same condition it was in at the time of seizure.
(i-2) If any part or parts of a motorcycle seized under subsection
(i) are found to be stolen and are removed, the seizing law enforcement
agency is not required to replace the part or parts before returning
the motorcycle to the person from whom it was seized.
(j) The State Police shall notify the Secretary of State each time

"(20 ILCS 505/7) (from Ch. 23, par. 5007)
Sec. 7. Placement of children; considerations.
(a) In placing any child under this Act, the Department shall
place such child, as far as possible, in the care and custody of some
individual holding the same religious belief as the parents of the
child, or with some child care facility which is operated by persons of
like religious faith as the parents of such child.
(b) In placing a child under this Act, the Department may place a
child with a relative if the Department has reason to believe that the
relative will be able to adequately provide for the child's safety and
welfare. The Department may not place a child with a relative, with the
exception of certain circumstances which may be waived as defined by
the Department in rules, if the results of a check of the Law
Enforcement Agency Data System (LEADS) identifies a prior criminal
conviction of the relative or any adult member of the relative's
household for any of the following offenses under the Criminal Code of
1961:
(1) murder;
(1.1) solicitation of murder;
(1.2) solicitation of murder for hire;
(1.3) intentional homicide of an unborn child;
(1.4) voluntary manslaughter of an unborn child;
(1.5) involuntary manslaughter;
(1.6) reckless homicide;
(1.7) concealment of a homicidal death;

(9) criminal sexual abuse;
(10) aggravated sexual abuse;
(11) heinous battery;
(12) aggravated battery with a firearm;
(13) tampering with food, drugs, or cosmetics;
(14) drug-induced infliction of great bodily harm;
(15) aggravated stalking;
(16) home invasion;
(17) vehicular invasion;
(18) criminal transmission of HIV;
(19) criminal neglect of an elderly or disabled person;
(20) child abandonment;
(21) endangering the life or health of a child;
(22) ritual mutilation;
(23) ritualized abuse of a child;
(24) an offense in any other state the elements of which are
similar and bear a substantial relationship to any of the foregoing
offenses.
For the purpose of this subsection, "relative" shall include any
person, 21 years of age or over, other than the parent, who (i) is
currently related to the child in any of the following ways by blood or
[April 26, 2001] 58
adoption: grandparent, sibling, great-grandparent, uncle, aunt, nephew,
niece, first cousin, second cousin, godparent, great-uncle, or
great-aunt; or (ii) is the spouse of such a relative; or (iii) is the
child's step-father, step-mother, or adult step-brother or step-sister;
"relative" also includes a person related in any of the foregoing ways
to a sibling of a child, even though the person is not related to the
child, when the child and its sibling are placed together with that
person. A relative with whom a child is placed pursuant to this
subsection may, but is not required to, apply for licensure as a foster
family home pursuant to the Child Care Act of 1969; provided, however,
that as of July 1, 1995, foster care payments shall be made only to
licensed foster family homes pursuant to the terms of Section 5 of this
Act.
(c) In placing a child under this Act, the Department shall ensure
that the child's health, safety, and best interests are met in making a
family foster care placement. The Department shall consider the
individual needs of the child and the capacity of the prospective
foster or adoptive parents to meet the needs of the child. The
Department shall make special efforts for the diligent recruitment of
potential foster and adoptive families that reflect the ethnic and
racial diversity of the children for whom foster and adoptive homes are
needed. "Special efforts" shall include contacting and working with
community organizations and religious organizations and may include
contracting with those organizations, utilizing local media and other
local resources, and conducting outreach activities.
(c-1) At the time of placement, the Department shall consider
concurrent planning, as described in subsection (l-1) of Section 5, so
that permanency may occur at the earliest opportunity. Consideration
should be given so that if reunification fails or is delayed, the
placement made is the best available placement to provide permanency
for the child.
(d) The Department may accept gifts, grants, offers of services,
and other contributions to use in making special recruitment efforts.
(e) The Department in placing children in adoptive or foster care
homes may not, in any policy or practice relating to the placement of
children for adoption or foster care, discriminate against any child or
prospective adoptive or foster parent on the basis of race.

State may rescind or withhold the entry of the order of suspension or
revocation, as the case may be, provided that a certified copy of a
stay order of a court is filed with the Secretary of State. If the
conviction is affirmed on appeal, the date of the conviction shall
relate back to the time the original judgment of conviction was entered
and the 6 month limitation prescribed shall not apply.
(c) 1. Upon suspending or revoking the driver's license or permit

at least 2 of which occurred while operating a commercial vehicle

Any driver prior to operating a vehicle for occupational purposes
only must submit the affidavit on forms to be provided by the
Secretary of State setting forth the facts of the person's
occupation. The affidavit shall also state the number of offenses
committed while operating a vehicle in connection with the driver's
regular occupation. The affidavit shall be accompanied by the
driver's license. Upon receipt of a properly completed affidavit,
the Secretary of State shall issue the driver a permit to operate a
vehicle in connection with the driver's regular occupation only.
Unless the permit is issued by the Secretary of State prior to the
date of suspension, the privilege to drive any motor vehicle shall
be suspended as set forth in the notice that was mailed under this
Section. If an affidavit is received subsequent to the effective
date of this suspension, a permit may be issued for the remainder
of the suspension period.

[April 26, 2001] 62
required herein shall be guilty of perjury under Section 6-302 and
upon conviction thereof shall have all driving privileges revoked
without further rights.
3. At the conclusion of a hearing under Section 2-118 of this
Code, the Secretary of State shall either rescind or continue an
order of revocation or shall substitute an order of suspension; or,
good cause appearing therefor, rescind, continue, change, or extend
the order of suspension. If the Secretary of State does not
rescind the order, the Secretary may upon application, to relieve
undue hardship, issue a restricted driving permit granting the
privilege of driving a motor vehicle between the petitioner's
residence and petitioner's place of employment or within the scope
of his employment related duties, or to allow transportation for
the petitioner, or a household member of the petitioner's family,
to receive necessary medical care and if the professional
evaluation indicates, provide transportation for alcohol remedial
or rehabilitative activity, or for the petitioner to attend
classes, as a student, in an accredited educational institution; if
the petitioner is able to demonstrate that no alternative means of
transportation is reasonably available and the petitioner will not
endanger the public safety or welfare. In each case the Secretary
may issue a restricted driving permit for a period deemed
appropriate, except that all permits shall expire within one year
from the date of issuance. A restricted driving permit issued
under this Section shall be subject to cancellation, revocation,
and suspension by the Secretary of State in like manner and for
like cause as a driver's license issued under this Code may be
cancelled, revoked, or suspended; except that a conviction upon one
or more offenses against laws or ordinances regulating the movement
of traffic shall be deemed sufficient cause for the revocation,
suspension, or cancellation of a restricted driving permit. The
Secretary of State may, as a condition to the issuance of a
restricted driving permit, require the applicant to participate in
a designated driver remedial or rehabilitative program. The
Secretary of State is authorized to cancel a restricted driving
permit if the permit holder does not successfully complete the
program.
(c-5) The Secretary of State may, as a condition of the reissuance
of a driver's license or permit to an applicant under the age of 18
years whose driver's license or permit has been suspended pursuant to
any of the provisions of this Section, require the applicant to
participate in a driver remedial education course and be retested under
Section 6-109 of this Code.
(d) This Section is subject to the provisions of the Drivers
License Compact.
(e) The Secretary of State shall not issue a restricted driving
permit to a person under the age of 16 years whose driving privileges
have been suspended or revoked under any provisions of this Code.
