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.
50 ILCS 20/23.6 (50 ILCS 20/23.6) Sec. 23.6. Continuation of Sections 2.5, 20.3, 20.4, 20.5, 20.10, 20.15, 20.20, and 20.25; validation under this amendatory Act of the 101st General Assembly. (a) The General Assembly finds and declares all of the following: (1) Public Act 100-736, which took effect on January | | 1, 2019, changed the repeal dates of Sections 2.5, 20.3, 20.4, 20.5, 20.10, 20.15, 20.20, and 20.25 of this Act from June 1, 2018 to June 1, 2023.
|
| (2) The Statute on Statutes sets forth general rules
| | on the repeal of statutes and the construction of multiple amendments, but Section 1 of that Act also states that these rules will not be observed when the result would be "inconsistent with the manifest intent of the General Assembly or repugnant to the context of the statute".
|
| (3) This amendatory Act of the 101st General Assembly
| | manifests the intention of the General Assembly to extend the repeal of Sections 2.5, 20.3, 20.4, 20.5, 20.10, 20.15, 20.20, and 20.25 of this Act and have those Sections continue in effect until they are otherwise lawfully repealed.
|
| (4) Sections 2.5, 20.3, 20.4, 20.5, 20.10, 20.15,
| | 20.20, and 20.25 of this Act were originally enacted to protect, promote, and preserve the general welfare. Any construction of this Act that results in the repeal of those Sections on June 1, 2018 would be inconsistent with the manifest intent of the General Assembly and repugnant to the context of this Act.
|
| (b) It is declared to have been the intent of the General Assembly that Sections 2.5, 20.3, 20.4, 20.5, 20.10, 20.15, 20.20, and 20.25 of this Act not be subject to repeal on June 1, 2018.
(c) Sections 2.5, 20.3, 20.4, 20.5, 20.10, 20.15, 20.20, and 20.25 of this Act shall be deemed to have been in continuous effect since June 1, 2018, and they shall continue to be in effect until they are otherwise lawfully repealed. All previously enacted amendments to those Sections taking effect on or after June 1, 2018 are validated. All actions taken in reliance on or under those Sections by any person or entity are validated.
(d) In order to ensure the continuing effectiveness of Sections 2.5, 20.3, 20.4, 20.5, 20.10, 20.15, 20.20, and 20.25 of this Act, those Sections are set forth in full and reenacted by this amendatory Act of the 101st General Assembly. Striking and underscoring are used only to show changes being made to the base text. This reenactment is intended as a continuation of those Sections. It is not intended to supersede any amendment to those Sections that is enacted by the 101st General Assembly. This reenactment applies
to all claims, civil actions, and proceedings pending on or
filed on or before the effective date of this amendatory Act of the 101st General Assembly.
