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.
(325 ILCS 5/7.12) (from Ch. 23, par. 2057.12)
Sec. 7.12.
The Child Protective Service Unit shall determine,
within 60 days, whether the report is "indicated" or "unfounded"
and report it forthwith to the central register; where it is
not possible to initiate or complete an investigation within
60 days the report may be deemed "undetermined" provided every
effort has been made to undertake a complete investigation.
The Department may extend the period in which such determinations
must be made in individual cases for additional periods of up to 30
days each for good cause shown. The Department shall by rule establish what
shall constitute good cause. In those cases in which the Child Protective Service Unit has made a final determination that a report is "indicated" or "unfounded", the Department shall provide written notification of the final determination to the subjects of the report and to the alleged perpetrator, parents, personal guardian or legal guardian of the alleged child victim, and other persons required to receive notice by regular U.S. mail. Subject to appropriation, written notification of the final determination shall be sent to a perpetrator indicated for child abuse or child neglect, or both, by both regular and certified mail.
