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.

    Sec. 509.

Whenever any court in this State grants probation to any person that the
court has reason to believe is or has been an addict or unlawful possessor
of controlled substances, the court shall require, as a condition of
probation, that the probationer submit to periodic tests by the Department
of Corrections to determine by means of appropriate chemical detection
tests whether the probationer is using controlled substances. The court may
require as a condition of probation that the probationer enter an approved
treatment program, if the court determines that the probationer is addicted
to a controlled substance. Whenever the Prisoner Review Board grants
parole or the Department of Juvenile Justice grants aftercare release to a person believed to have been an
unlawful possessor or addict of controlled substances, the Board or Department shall
require as a condition of parole or aftercare release that the parolee or aftercare releasee submit to appropriate
periodic chemical tests by the Department of Corrections or the Department of Juvenile Justice to determine
whether the parolee or aftercare releasee is using controlled substances.
