    (Text of Section WITHOUT the changes made by P.A. 98-599, which has been held unconstitutional)
    Sec. 1-103.3. Application of 1994 amendment; funding standard.
    (a) The provisions of this amendatory Act of 1994 that change the method of calculating, certifying, and paying the required State contributions to the retirement systems established under Articles 2, 14, 15, 16, and 18 shall first apply to the State contributions required for State fiscal year 1996.
    (b) The General Assembly declares that a funding ratio (the ratio of a retirement system's total assets to its total actuarial liabilities) of 90% is an appropriate goal for State-funded retirement systems in Illinois, and it finds that a funding ratio of 90% is now the generally-recognized norm throughout the nation for public employee retirement systems that are considered to be financially secure and funded in an appropriate and responsible manner.
    (c) Every 5 years, beginning in 1999, the Commission on Government Forecasting and Accountability, in consultation with the affected retirement systems and the Governor's Office of Management and Budget (formerly Bureau of the Budget), shall consider and determine whether the 90% funding ratio adopted in subsection (b) continues to represent an appropriate goal for State-funded retirement systems in Illinois, and it shall report its findings and recommendations on this subject to the Governor and the General Assembly.
