Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS)
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 5/24-101) (from Ch. 108 1/2, par. 24-101)
Sec. 24-101.
Notwithstanding any law to the contrary, the State of
Illinois or any unit of local government or school district may enter
into a written contract with any of its employees to defer a part of
their gross compensation and may invest such funds in any
such manner as prescribed by the deferred compensation program adopted
by it under this Article. Compensation deferred pursuant to a deferred
compensation program adopted under this Article shall not exceed the amount
of compensation allowed to be deferred without being subject to income tax
in the year in which it is earned, pursuant to Section 457 of the United
States Internal Revenue Code or laws supplementary or amendatory thereto.
It is hereby declared to be in the public interest to provide public employees
with a plan for the deferral of compensation and the accrual of income and
gain thereon if such deferred compensation be invested, and to encourage
the continued service of public employees by making available such benefits to them.
