| 1 | | Sec. 8.12. State Pensions Fund.
| 2 | | (a) The moneys in the State Pensions Fund shall be used | 3 | | exclusively
for the administration of the Revised Uniform | 4 | | Unclaimed Property Act and
for the expenses incurred by the | 5 | | Auditor General for administering the provisions of Section | 6 | | 2-8.1 of the Illinois State Auditing Act and for operational | 7 | | expenses of the Office of the State Treasurer and for the | 8 | | funding of the unfunded liabilities of the designated | 9 | | retirement systems. For the purposes of this Section, | 10 | | "operational expenses of the Office of the State Treasurer" | 11 | | includes the acquisition of land and buildings in State fiscal | 12 | | year 2019 and 2020 for use by the Office of the State | 13 | | Treasurer, as well as construction, reconstruction, | 14 | | improvement, repair, and maintenance, in accordance with the | 15 | | provisions of laws relating thereto, of such lands and | 16 | | buildings beginning in State fiscal year 2019 and thereafter. | 17 | | Beginning in State fiscal year 2020, payments to the designated | 18 | | retirement systems under this Section shall be in addition to, | 19 | | and not in lieu of, any State contributions required under the | 20 | | Illinois Pension Code.
| 21 | | "Designated retirement systems" means:

| 24 | | (2) the Teachers' Retirement System of the State of | 25 | | Illinois;
| 26 | | (3) the State Universities Retirement System;
|
| | | HB2836 | - 4 - | LRB101 08077 JRG 53140 b |
|
| 1 | | (4) the Judges Retirement System of Illinois; and
| 2 | | (5) the General Assembly Retirement System.
| 3 | | (b) Each year the General Assembly may make appropriations | 4 | | from
the State Pensions Fund for the administration of the | 5 | | Revised Uniform
Unclaimed Property Act.
| 6 | | (c) As soon as possible after July 30, 2004 (the effective | 7 | | date of Public Act 93-839), the General Assembly shall | 8 | | appropriate from the State Pensions Fund (1) to the State | 9 | | Universities Retirement System the amount certified under | 10 | | Section 15-165 during the prior year, (2) to the Judges | 11 | | Retirement System of Illinois the amount certified under | 12 | | Section 18-140 during the prior year, and (3) to the General | 13 | | Assembly Retirement System the amount certified under Section | 14 | | 2-134 during the prior year as part of the required
State | 15 | | contributions to each of those designated retirement systems; | 16 | | except that amounts appropriated under this subsection (c) in | 17 | | State fiscal year 2005 shall not reduce the amount in the State | 18 | | Pensions Fund below $5,000,000. If the amount in the State | 19 | | Pensions Fund does not exceed the sum of the amounts certified | 20 | | in Sections 15-165, 18-140, and 2-134 by at least $5,000,000, | 21 | | the amount paid to each designated retirement system under this | 22 | | subsection shall be reduced in proportion to the amount | 23 | | certified by each of those designated retirement systems.
| 24 | | (c-5) For fiscal years 2006 through 2019, the General | 25 | | Assembly shall appropriate from the State Pensions Fund to the | 26 | | State Universities Retirement System the amount estimated to be |
| | | HB2836 | - 5 - | LRB101 08077 JRG 53140 b |
|
| 1 | | available during the fiscal year in the State Pensions Fund; | 2 | | provided, however, that the amounts appropriated under this | 3 | | subsection (c-5) shall not reduce the amount in the State | 4 | | Pensions Fund below $5,000,000.
| 5 | | (c-6) For fiscal year 2020 and each fiscal year thereafter, | 6 | | as soon as may be practical after any money is deposited into | 7 | | the State Pensions Fund from the Unclaimed Property Trust Fund, | 8 | | the State Treasurer shall apportion the deposited amount among | 9 | | the designated retirement systems as defined in subsection (a) | 10 | | to reduce their actuarial reserve deficiencies. The State | 11 | | Comptroller and State Treasurer shall pay the apportioned | 12 | | amounts to the designated retirement systems to fund the | 13 | | unfunded liabilities of the designated retirement systems. The | 14 | | amount apportioned to each designated retirement system shall | 15 | | constitute a portion of the amount estimated to be available | 16 | | for appropriation from the State Pensions Fund that is the same | 17 | | as that retirement system's portion of the total actual reserve | 18 | | deficiency of the systems, as determined annually by the | 19 | | Governor's Office of Management and Budget at the request of | 20 | | the State Treasurer. The amounts apportioned under this | 21 | | subsection shall not reduce the amount in the State Pensions | 22 | | Fund below $5,000,000. | 23 | | (d) The
Governor's Office of Management and Budget shall | 24 | | determine the individual and total
reserve deficiencies of the | 25 | | designated retirement systems. For this purpose,
the
| 26 | | Governor's Office of Management and Budget shall utilize the |
| | | HB2836 | - 6 - | LRB101 08077 JRG 53140 b |
|
| 1 | | latest available audit and actuarial
reports of each of the | 2 | | retirement systems and the relevant reports and
statistics of | 3 | | the Public Employee Pension Fund Division of the Department of
| 4 | | Insurance.
| 5 | | (d-1) As soon as practicable after March 5, 2004 (the | 6 | | effective date of Public Act 93-665), the Comptroller shall
| 7 | | direct and the Treasurer shall transfer from the State Pensions | 8 | | Fund to
the General Revenue Fund, as funds become available, a | 9 | | sum equal to the
amounts that would have been paid
from the | 10 | | State Pensions Fund to the Teachers' Retirement System of the | 11 | | State
of Illinois,
the State Universities Retirement System, | 12 | | the Judges Retirement
System of Illinois, the
General Assembly | 13 | | Retirement System, and the State Employees'
Retirement System
| 14 | | of Illinois
after March 5, 2004 (the effective date of Public | 15 | | Act 93-665) during the remainder of fiscal year 2004 to the
| 16 | | designated retirement systems from the appropriations provided | 17 | | for in
this Section if the transfers provided in Section 6z-61 | 18 | | had not
occurred. The transfers described in this subsection | 19 | | (d-1) are to
partially repay the General Revenue Fund for the | 20 | | costs associated with
the bonds used to fund the moneys | 21 | | transferred to the designated
retirement systems under Section | 22 | | 6z-61.
