Information maintained by the Legislative Reference Bureau
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.

40 ILCS 5/7-172.1

    (40 ILCS 5/7-172.1) (from Ch. 108 1/2, par. 7-172.1)
    Sec. 7-172.1. Actions to enforce payments by municipalities and instrumentalities.
    (a) If any participating municipality or participating instrumentality fails to transmit to the Fund contributions required of it under this Article or contributions collected by it from its participating employees for the purposes of this Article for more than 60 days after the payment of such contributions is due, the Fund, after giving notice to such municipality or instrumentality, may certify to the State Comptroller the amounts of such delinquent payments in accordance with any applicable rules of the Comptroller, and the Comptroller shall deduct the amounts so certified or any part thereof from any payments of State funds to the municipality or instrumentality involved and shall remit the amount so deducted to the Fund. If State funds from which such deductions may be made are not available, the Fund may proceed against the municipality or instrumentality to recover the amounts of such delinquent payments in the appropriate circuit court.
    (b) If any participating municipality fails to transmit to the Fund contributions required of it under this Article or contributions collected by it from its participating employees for the purposes of this Article for more than 60 days after the payment of such contributions is due, the Fund, after giving notice to such municipality, may certify the fact of such delinquent payment to the county treasurer of the county in which such municipality is located, who shall thereafter remit the amounts collected from the tax levied by the municipality under Section 7-171 directly to the Fund.
    (c) If reports furnished to the Fund by the municipality or instrumentality involved are inadequate for the computation of the amounts of such delinquent payments, the Fund may provide for such audit of the records of the municipality or instrumentality as may be required to establish the amounts of such delinquent payments. The municipality or instrumentality shall make its records available to the Fund for the purpose of such audit. The cost of such audit shall be added to the amount of the delinquent payments and shall be recovered by the Fund from the municipality or instrumentality at the same time and in the same manner as the delinquent payments are recovered.
