23 | Sec. 21.7. Scratch-out Multiple Sclerosis scratch-off | ||||||
24 | game. | ||||||
25 | (a) The Department shall offer a special instant |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | scratch-off game for the benefit of research pertaining to | ||||||
2 | multiple sclerosis. The game shall commence on January 1, 2008 | ||||||
3 | or as soon thereafter, in the discretion of the Director, as is | ||||||
4 | reasonably practical. The operation of the game shall be | ||||||
5 | governed by this Act and any rules adopted by the Department. | ||||||
6 | If any provision of this Section is inconsistent with any other | ||||||
7 | provision of this Act, then this Section governs.
| ||||||
8 | (b) The Multiple Sclerosis Research Fund is created as a | ||||||
9 | special fund in the State treasury. The net revenue from the | ||||||
10 | scratch-out multiple sclerosis scratch-off game created under | ||||||
11 | this Section shall be deposited into the Fund for appropriation | ||||||
12 | by the General Assembly to the Department of Public Health for | ||||||
13 | the purpose of making grants to organizations in Illinois that | ||||||
14 | conduct research pertaining to the repair of damage caused by | ||||||
15 | an acquired demyelinating disease of the central nervous | ||||||
16 | system. | ||||||
17 | Moneys received for the purposes of this Section, | ||||||
18 | including, without limitation, net revenue from the special | ||||||
19 | instant scratch-off game and from gifts, grants, and awards | ||||||
20 | from any public or private entity, must be deposited into the | ||||||
21 | Fund. Any interest earned on moneys in the Fund must be | ||||||
22 | deposited into the Fund. | ||||||
23 | For purposes of this Section, the term "research" includes, | ||||||
24 | without limitation, expenditures to develop and advance the | ||||||
25 | understanding, techniques, and modalities effective for | ||||||
26 | maintaining function, mobility, and strength through |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | preventive physical therapy or other treatments and to develop | ||||||
2 | and advance the repair of myelin, neuron, and axon damage | ||||||
3 | caused by an acquired demyelinating disease of the central | ||||||
4 | nervous system and the restoration of function, including but | ||||||
5 | not limited to, nervous system repair or neuroregeneration. The | ||||||
6 | grant funds may not be used for institutional, organizational, | ||||||
7 | or community-based overhead costs, indirect costs, or levies. | ||||||
8 | For purposes of this subsection, "net revenue" means the total | ||||||
9 | amount for which tickets have been sold less the sum of the | ||||||
10 | amount paid out in the prizes and the actual administrative | ||||||
11 | expenses of the Department solely related to the scratch-off | ||||||
12 | game under this Section. | ||||||
13 | (c) During the time that tickets are sold for the
| ||||||
14 | scratch-out multiple sclerosis scratch-off game, the
| ||||||
15 | Department shall not unreasonably diminish the efforts devoted
| ||||||
16 | to marketing any other instant scratch-off lottery game.
| ||||||
17 | (d) The Department may adopt any rules necessary to | ||||||
18 | implement and administer the provisions of this Section. | ||||||
19 | Section 10. The State Finance Act is amended by changing | ||||||
20 | Section 8h and by adding Section 5.675 as follows: | ||||||
21 | (30 ILCS 105/5.675 new) | ||||||
22 | Sec. 5.675. The Multiple Sclerosis Research Fund. | ||||||
23 | (30 ILCS 105/8h)
|
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | Sec. 8h. Transfers to General Revenue Fund. | ||||||
2 | (a) Except as otherwise provided in this Section and | ||||||
3 | Section 8n of this Act, and (c), (d), or (e),
notwithstanding | ||||||
4 | any other
State law to the contrary, the Governor
may, through | ||||||
5 | June 30, 2007, from time to time direct the State Treasurer and | ||||||
6 | Comptroller to transfer
a specified sum from any fund held by | ||||||
7 | the State Treasurer to the General
Revenue Fund in order to | ||||||
8 | help defray the State's operating costs for the
fiscal year. | ||||||
9 | The total transfer under this Section from any fund in any
| ||||||
10 | fiscal year shall not exceed the lesser of (i) 8% of the | ||||||
11 | revenues to be deposited
into the fund during that fiscal year | ||||||
12 | or (ii) an amount that leaves a remaining fund balance of 25% | ||||||
13 | of the July 1 fund balance of that fiscal year. In fiscal year | ||||||
14 | 2005 only, prior to calculating the July 1, 2004 final | ||||||
15 | balances, the Governor may calculate and direct the State | ||||||
16 | Treasurer with the Comptroller to transfer additional amounts | ||||||
17 | determined by applying the formula authorized in Public Act | ||||||
18 | 93-839 to the funds balances on July 1, 2003.
No transfer may | ||||||
19 | be made from a fund under this Section that would have the
| ||||||
20 | effect of reducing the available balance in the fund to an | ||||||
21 | amount less than
the amount remaining unexpended and unreserved | ||||||
22 | from the total appropriation
from that fund estimated to be | ||||||
23 | expended for that fiscal year. This Section does not apply to | ||||||
24 | any
funds that are restricted by federal law to a specific use, | ||||||
25 | to any funds in
the Motor Fuel Tax Fund, the Intercity | ||||||
26 | Passenger Rail Fund, the Hospital Provider Fund, the Medicaid |
| |||||||

4 | the Lawyers' Assistance Program Fund, the Supreme Court Federal | ||||||
5 | Projects Fund, the Supreme Court Special State Projects Fund, | ||||||
6 | the Supplemental Low-Income Energy Assistance Fund, the Good | ||||||
7 | Samaritan Energy Trust Fund, the Low-Level Radioactive Waste | ||||||
8 | Facility Development and Operation Fund, the Horse Racing | ||||||
9 | Equity Trust Fund, or the Hospital Basic Services Preservation | ||||||
10 | Fund, or to any
funds to which subsection (f) of Section 20-40 | ||||||
11 | of the Nursing and Advanced Practice Nursing Act applies. No | ||||||
12 | transfers may be made under this Section from the Pet | ||||||
13 | Population Control Fund. Notwithstanding any
other provision | ||||||
14 | of this Section, for fiscal year 2004,
the total transfer under | ||||||
15 | this Section from the Road Fund or the State
Construction | ||||||
16 | Account Fund shall not exceed the lesser of (i) 5% of the | ||||||
17 | revenues to be deposited
into the fund during that fiscal year | ||||||
18 | or (ii) 25% of the beginning balance in the fund.
For fiscal | ||||||
19 | year 2005 through fiscal year 2007, no amounts may be | ||||||
20 | transferred under this Section from the Road Fund, the State | ||||||
21 | Construction Account Fund, the Criminal Justice Information | ||||||
22 | Systems Trust Fund, the Wireless Service Emergency Fund, or the | ||||||
23 | Mandatory Arbitration Fund.
| ||||||
24 | In determining the available balance in a fund, the | ||||||
25 | Governor
may include receipts, transfers into the fund, and | ||||||
26 | other
resources anticipated to be available in the fund in that |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | fiscal year.
| ||||||
2 | The State Treasurer and Comptroller shall transfer the | ||||||
3 | amounts designated
under this Section as soon as may be | ||||||
4 | practicable after receiving the direction
to transfer from the | ||||||
5 | Governor.
| ||||||

this amendatory | ||||||
9 | Act of the 94th General Assembly shall be redirected as | ||||||
10 | provided in Section 8n of this Act.

12 | Cure Fund; (ii) any fund established under the Community Senior | ||||||
13 | Services and Resources Act; or (iii) on or after January 1, | ||||||
