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.
(105 ILCS 5/1-2) (from Ch. 122, par. 1-2)
Sec. 1-2.
Construction.
The provisions of this Act, so far as they are the same as those of any
prior statute, shall be construed as a continuation of such prior
provisions, and not as a new enactment.
If in any other statute reference is made to an Act of the General
Assembly, or a section of such an Act, which is continued in this School
Code, such reference shall be held to refer to the Act or section thereof
so continued in this Code.
