(225 ILCS 106/125)
(Section scheduled to be repealed on January 1, 2026)
Sec. 125. Findings and recommendations. At the conclusion of the hearing, the Board shall present to the Secretary a
written report of its findings of fact, conclusions of law, and
recommendations. The report shall contain a finding of whether the licensee
violated this Act or failed to comply with the conditions required in this Act.
The Board shall specify the nature of the violation or failure to comply, and
shall make its recommendations to the Secretary.
The report of findings of fact, conclusions of law, and
recommendations of the
Board shall be the basis for the Department's order for refusal or for the
granting of a license or for any other disciplinary action.
If the Secretary disagrees with the recommendation of
the Board, the Secretary may issue an order in contravention of the Board's
recommendation. The Secretary shall provide a written report to the Board on
any disagreement and shall specify the reasons for the action in the final
order. The report of
findings of fact is not admissible in evidence against the person in a
criminal prosecution brought for violation of this Act, but the hearing and
findings of fact
are not a bar to a criminal prosecution brought for the violation of
this Act.
