Illinois General Assembly - Illinois Compiled Statutes

Updating the database of the Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS) is an ongoing process. Recent laws may not yet be included in the ILCS database, but they are found on this site as Public Acts soon after they become law. For information concerning the relationship between statutes and Public Acts, refer to the Guide.

Because the statute database is maintained primarily for legislative drafting purposes, statutory changes are sometimes included in the statute database before they take effect. If the source note at the end of a Section of the statutes includes a Public Act that has not yet taken effect, the version of the law that is currently in effect may have already been removed from the database and you should refer to that Public Act to see the changes made to the current law.

15 ILCS 15/5.5

(15 ILCS 15/5.5)

Sec. 5.5. Executive order provisions superseded.

(a) Executive Order No. 2003-9, in subdivision II(E), provides in part:
"All such personnel shall initially constitute probationary employees
under the Personnel Code.  The Department of Central Management Services
shall establish a procedure for qualification and retention of personnel
in accordance with the Personnel Code.".  This language, which violates
Section 4 of this Act and contravenes applicable provisions of the Personnel
Code, is hereby superseded and of no force or effect.  The status and rights
of employees under the Personnel Code who are transferred by Executive Order
No. 2003-9 shall not be affected by the reorganization under that Order.

(b) Executive Order No. 2003-10, subdivision I(C), provides:
"The statutory powers, duties, rights, responsibilities and liabilities
regarding internal auditing by agencies, offices, divisions, departments,
bureaus, boards and commissions directly responsible to the Governor derive
from, among others, the Fiscal Control and Internal Auditing Act, 30 ILCS
10/1001 et seq., and the Illinois State Auditing Act, 30 ILCS 5/1-1 et seq.".
Executive Order No. 2003-10 addresses only internal auditing functions and does
not address external auditing functions or the powers of the Auditor General.
The reference to the Illinois State Auditing Act is therefore incorrect, and
that reference is hereby superseded and of no force or effect.

(c) Executive Order No. 2003-10, subdivision I(D), provides:
"Staff legal functions across agencies shall be transferred from individual
agencies to the Department of Central Management Services.  Legal functions
specific to each particular agency may remain at that agency.".
This transfer of legal functions was intended to be and is hereby limited
to legal technical advisor functions related to procurement and personnel
issues across agencies.  All other legal functions at an agency, including
those related to issues particular to the agency, and legal functions performed
by assistant attorneys general under the direction and control of the Attorney
General, shall remain at that agency.
To the extent that the language of subdivision I(D) of Executive Order No.
2003-10 may be construed to conflict with this subsection (c), that language
in Executive Order No. 2003-10 is hereby superseded.

If any legal personnel (or their associated records or property) have been
transferred from an agency to the Department of Central Management Services
under the apparent direction of Executive Order No. 2003-10 but contrary to the
provisions of this subsection (c), those legal personnel (and their associated
records and property) shall be immediately transferred back to the original
agency from the Department of Central Management Services.

(d) Executive Order No. 2003-11, in subdivisions II(B) and II(D), provides
in part:
"All such personnel shall initially constitute probationary employees
under the Personnel Code.  The Department of Central Management Services
shall establish a procedure for qualification and retention of personnel
in accordance with the Personnel Code.".  This language, which violates
Section 4 of this Act and contravenes applicable provisions of the Personnel
Code, is hereby superseded and of no force or effect.  The status and rights
of employees under the Personnel Code who are transferred by Executive Order
No. 2003-11 shall not be affected by the reorganization under that Order.

(e) Executive Order No. 2003-12, in subdivision II(B), provides in part:
"All such personnel shall initially constitute probationary employees
under the Personnel Code.  The Department of Central Management Services
shall establish a procedure for qualification and retention of personnel
in accordance with the Personnel Code.".  This language, which violates
Section 4 of this Act and contravenes applicable provisions of the Personnel
Code, is hereby superseded and of no force or effect.  The status and rights
of employees under the Personnel Code who are transferred by Executive Order
No. 2003-12 shall not be affected by the reorganization under that Order.

(f) Executive Order No. 09-06, filed April 1, 2009, is hereby superseded and of no force or effect.
