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.
(225 ILCS 430/18.3) (Section scheduled to be repealed on January 1, 2027) Sec. 18.3. Finding and recommendations. At the conclusion of the hearing, the hearing officer shall make findings
of fact, conclusions of law, and
recommendations, separately stated, and submit them to the Secretary and to all
parties to the proceeding. The hearing officer's findings of fact, conclusions of law, and
recommendations
shall be served upon the licensee in a
similar fashion as service of the notice of formal charges. Within 20 days
after the service, any party to the proceeding may
present to the Secretary a motion, in writing, specifying the particular grounds
for a rehearing. The Secretary, following the time allowed for filing a motion for rehearing,
shall review the hearing officer's findings of
fact, conclusions of law, and recommendations and any subsequently filed
motions. After review of the information, the Secretary may hear oral arguments and thereafter shall issue the order.
The report of findings of fact, conclusions of law, and
recommendations of the hearing officer shall be the basis for the Department's
order. If the Secretary finds that substantial
justice was not done, the Secretary may issue an order in contravention of the
hearing officer's recommendations.
