(a) This Act applies to every agency as defined in this Act.
Beginning January 1, 1978, in case of conflict between the provisions of
this Act and the Act creating or conferring power on an agency, this Act
shall control. If, however, an agency (or its predecessor in the case of
an agency that has been consolidated or reorganized) has existing procedures
on July 1, 1977, specifically for contested cases or licensing, those existing
provisions control, except that this exception respecting contested
cases and licensing does not apply if the Act creating or conferring
power on the agency adopts by express reference the provisions of this
Act. Where the Act creating or conferring power on an agency
establishes administrative procedures not covered by this Act, those
procedures shall remain in effect.
(b) The provisions of this Act do not apply to (i) preliminary
hearings, investigations, or practices where no final determinations
affecting State funding are made by the State Board of Education, (ii) legal
opinions issued under Section 2-3.7 of the School Code, (iii) as to State
colleges and universities, their disciplinary and grievance proceedings,
academic irregularity and capricious grading proceedings, and admission
standards and procedures, and (iv) the class specifications for positions
and individual position descriptions prepared and maintained under the
Personnel Code. Those class specifications shall, however, be made
reasonably available to the public for inspection and copying.
(c) Section 5-35 of this Act relating to procedures for rulemaking
does not apply to the following:
(1) Rules adopted by the Pollution Control Board | ||

(d) Pay rates established under Section 8a of the Personnel Code
shall be amended or repealed pursuant to the process set forth in Section
5-50 within 30 days after it becomes necessary to do so due to a conflict
between the rates and the terms of a collective bargaining agreement
covering the compensation of an employee subject to that Code.
(e) Section 10-45 of this Act shall not apply to any hearing, proceeding,
or investigation conducted under Section 13-515 of the Public Utilities Act.
(f) Article 10 of this Act does not apply to any hearing, proceeding, or
investigation conducted by the State Council for the State of Illinois created
under Section 3-3-11.05 of the Unified Code of Corrections or by the Interstate
Commission for Adult Offender Supervision created under the
Interstate Compact for Adult Offender Supervision or by the Interstate Commission for Juveniles created under the Interstate Compact for Juveniles.
(g) This Act is subject to the provisions of Article XXI of
the Public Utilities Act. To the extent that any provision of
this Act conflicts with the provisions of that Article XXI, the
provisions of that Article XXI control.

to the general public. This first notice period shall commence on

notice shall include all the following:

| ||
(2) The specific statutory citation upon which the | ||
| ||

| ||
During the first notice period, the agency shall accept data, views, arguments, or comments from any interested persons. The agency shall accept submissions in writing, including submissions by email or by other publicly accessible electronic means through its website. In the discretion of the agency, submissions may be submitted orally. The notice
published in the Illinois Register shall indicate the manner selected by the
agency for the submissions, including the email address or website address where submissions will be accepted. The agency shall consider all submissions
received.
The agency shall hold a public hearing on the proposed rulemaking during
the first notice period if (i) during the first notice period, the
agency finds that a public hearing
would facilitate the submission of views and comments that might not
otherwise be submitted or (ii) the agency receives a request for a public
hearing, within the first 14 days after publication of the notice of
proposed rulemaking in the Illinois Register, from 25 interested persons,
an association representing at least 100 interested persons, the Governor,
the Joint Committee on Administrative Rules, or a unit of local government
that may be affected. At the public hearing, the agency shall allow
interested persons to present views and comments on the proposed
rulemaking. A public hearing in response to a request for a hearing may
not be held less than 20 days after the publication of the notice of
proposed rulemaking in the Illinois Register unless notice of the public
hearing is included in the notice of proposed rulemaking. A public hearing
on proposed rulemaking may not be held less than 5 days before submission
of the notice required under subsection (c) of this Section to the Joint
Committee on Administrative Rules. Each agency may prescribe reasonable
rules for the conduct of public hearings on proposed rulemaking to prevent
undue repetition at the hearings. The hearings must be open to the public
and recorded by stenographic or mechanical means.
At least one agency representative shall be present during the hearing who
is qualified to respond to general questions from the public regarding the
agency's proposal and the rulemaking process.
(c) Each agency shall provide additional notice of the proposed rulemaking
to the Joint Committee on Administrative Rules. The period commencing on
the day written notice is received by the Joint Committee shall be known as
the second notice period and shall expire 45 days thereafter unless before
that time the agency and the Joint Committee have agreed to extend the
second notice period beyond 45 days for a period not to exceed an
additional 45 days or unless the agency has received a statement of
objection from the Joint Committee or notification from the Joint Committee
that no objection will be issued. The written notice to the Joint
Committee shall include (i) the text and location of any changes made to
the proposed rulemaking during the first notice period in a form prescribed
by the Joint Committee; (ii) for all
proposed rules and proposed amendments to rules, a final regulatory
flexibility analysis containing a summary of issues raised by small
businesses during the first notice period and a description of actions
taken on any alternatives to the proposed rule suggested by small
businesses during the first notice period, including reasons for rejecting
any alternatives not utilized; and (iii) if a written request has been made
by the Joint Committee within 30 days after initial notice appears in the
Illinois Register under subsection (b) of this Section, an analysis of the
economic and budgetary effects of the proposed rulemaking. After
commencement of the second notice period, no substantive change may be made
to a proposed rulemaking unless it is made in response to an objection or
suggestion of the Joint Committee. The agency shall also send a copy of
the final regulatory flexibility analysis to each small business that has
presented views or comments on the proposed rulemaking during the first
notice period and to any other interested person who requests a copy. The
agency may charge a reasonable fee for providing the copies to cover postage
and handling costs.
(d) After the expiration of the second notice period, after notification
from the Joint Committee that no objection will be issued, or after a
response by the agency to a statement of objections issued by the Joint
Committee, whichever is applicable, the agency shall file, under Section
5-65, a certified copy of each rule, modification, or repeal of any rule
adopted by it. The copy shall be published in the Illinois Register. Each
rule hereafter adopted under this Section is effective upon filing unless a
later effective date is required by statute or is specified in the
rulemaking.
(e) No rule or modification or repeal of any rule may be adopted, or filed
with the Secretary of State, more than one year after the date the first
notice period for the rulemaking under subsection (b) commenced. Any
period during which the rulemaking is prohibited from being filed under
Section 5-115 shall not be considered in calculating this one-year time period.

(5 ILCS 100/5-45) (from Ch. 127, par. 1005-45) Sec. 5-45. Emergency rulemaking. (a) "Emergency" means the existence of any situation that any agency
finds reasonably constitutes a threat to the public interest, safety, or
welfare. (b) If any agency finds that an
emergency exists that requires adoption of a rule upon fewer days than
is required by Section 5-40 and states in writing its reasons for that
finding, the agency may adopt an emergency rule without prior notice or
hearing upon filing a notice of emergency rulemaking with the Secretary of
State under Section 5-70. The notice shall include the text of the
emergency rule and shall be published in the Illinois Register. Consent
orders or other court orders adopting settlements negotiated by an agency
may be adopted under this Section. Subject to applicable constitutional or
statutory provisions, an emergency rule becomes effective immediately upon
filing under Section 5-65 or at a stated date less than 10 days
thereafter. The agency's finding and a statement of the specific reasons
for the finding shall be filed with the rule. The agency shall take
reasonable and appropriate measures to make emergency rules known to the
persons who may be affected by them. The agency shall accept data, views, arguments, or comments regarding the emergency rulemaking from any interested persons. The agency shall accept submissions in writing, including submissions by email or by other publicly accessible electronic means through its website. In the discretion of the agency, submissions may be submitted orally. The notice published in the Illinois Register shall indicate the manner selected by the agency for the submissions, including the email address or website address where submissions will be accepted. The agency shall consider all submissions received. (c) An emergency rule may be effective for a period of not longer than
150 days, but the agency's authority to adopt an identical rule under Section
5-40 is not precluded. No emergency rule may be adopted more
than once in any 24-month period, except that this limitation on the number
of emergency rules that may be adopted in a 24-month period does not apply
to (i) emergency rules that make additions to and deletions from the Drug
Manual under Section 5-5.16 of the Illinois Public Aid Code or the
generic drug formulary under Section 3.14 of the Illinois Food, Drug
and Cosmetic Act, (ii) emergency rules adopted by the Pollution Control
Board before July 1, 1997 to implement portions of the Livestock Management
Facilities Act, (iii) emergency rules adopted by the Illinois Department of Public Health under subsections (a) through (i) of Section 2 of the Department of Public Health Act when necessary to protect the public's health, (iv) emergency rules adopted pursuant to subsection (n) of this Section, (v) emergency rules adopted pursuant to subsection (o) of this Section, or (vi) emergency rules adopted pursuant to subsection (c-5) of this Section. Two or more emergency rules having substantially the same
purpose and effect shall be deemed to be a single rule for purposes of this
Section. (c-5) To facilitate the maintenance of the program of group health benefits provided to annuitants, survivors, and retired employees under the State Employees Group Insurance Act of 1971, rules to alter the contributions to be paid by the State, annuitants, survivors, retired employees, or any combination of those entities, for that program of group health benefits, shall be adopted as emergency rules. The adoption of those rules shall be considered an emergency and necessary for the public interest, safety, and welfare. (d) In order to provide for the expeditious and timely implementation
of the State's fiscal year 1999 budget, emergency rules to implement any
provision of Public Act 90-587 or 90-588
or any other budget initiative for fiscal year 1999 may be adopted in
accordance with this Section by the agency charged with administering that
provision or initiative, except that the 24-month limitation on the adoption

Sec. 5-50. Peremptory rulemaking. "Peremptory rulemaking" means any
rulemaking that is required as a result of federal law, federal rules and
regulations, an order of a court, or a collective bargaining agreement
pursuant to subsection (d) of Section 1-5, under conditions that preclude
compliance with the general rulemaking requirements imposed by Section 5-40
and that preclude the exercise of discretion by the agency as to the
content of the rule it is required to adopt. Peremptory rulemaking shall
not be used to implement consent orders or other court orders adopting
settlements negotiated by the agency. If any agency finds that peremptory
rulemaking is necessary and states in writing its reasons for that finding,
the agency may adopt peremptory rulemaking upon filing a notice of
rulemaking with the Secretary of State under Section 5-70. The notice shall
be published in the Illinois Register. The agency shall accept data, views, arguments, or comments regarding the peremptory rulemaking. The agency shall accept submissions in writing, including submissions by email or by other publicly accessible electronic means through its website. In the discretion of the agency, submissions may be submitted orally. The notice published in the Illinois Register shall indicate the manner selected by the agency for the submissions, including the email address or website address where submissions will be accepted. The agency shall consider all submissions received. A rule adopted under the peremptory
rulemaking provisions of this Section becomes effective immediately upon
filing with the Secretary of State and in the agency's principal office, or
at a date required or authorized by the relevant federal law, federal rules
and regulations, or court order, as stated in the notice of rulemaking.
Notice of rulemaking under this Section shall be published in the Illinois
Register, shall specifically refer to the appropriate State or federal
court order or federal law, rules, and regulations, and shall be in a form
as the Secretary of State may reasonably prescribe by rule. The agency
shall file the notice of peremptory rulemaking within 30 days after a
change in rules is required.
The Department of Healthcare and Family Services may adopt peremptory rulemaking under the terms and conditions of this Section to implement final payments included in a State Medicaid Plan Amendment approved by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services of the United States Department of Health and Human Services and authorized under Section 5A-12.2 of the Illinois Public Aid Code, and to adjust hospital provider assessments as Medicaid Provider-Specific Taxes permitted by Title XIX of the federal Social Security Act and authorized under Section 5A-2 of the Illinois Public Aid Code.

published in the Illinois Register not less than 30 nor more than 60 days
before the effective date of the repeal. This Section does not apply to any
rules filed under Section 5-45.

the Illinois Register by January 1 and July 1 of each year a regulatory
agenda to elicit public comments concerning any rule that the agency is
considering proposing but for which no notice of proposed rulemaking activity
has been submitted to the Illinois Register. A regulatory agenda shall consist
of summaries of those rules. Each summary shall, in less than 2,000 words,
contain the following when practicable:
(1) A description of the rule.
(2) The statutory authority the agency is exercising.
(3) A schedule of the dates for any hearings, | ||
| ||
(4) The date the agency anticipates submitting a | ||
| ||
(5) The name, address, email address, and telephone | ||

(6) A statement whether the rule will affect small | ||

(7) Any other information that may serve the public | ||

Nothing in this Section shall preclude an agency from adopting a rule that
has not been summarized in a regulatory agenda or from adopting a rule
different than one summarized in a regulatory agenda if in the agency head's
best judgment it is necessary. If an agency finds that a situation exists that
requires adoption of a rule that was not summarized on either of the 2 most
recent regulatory agendas, it shall state its reasons in writing together with
the facts that form their basis upon filing the notice of proposed rulemaking
with the Secretary of State under Section 5-40. Nothing in this Section shall
require an agency to adopt a rule summarized in a regulatory agenda. The
Secretary of State shall adopt rules necessary for the publication of a
regulatory agenda, including but not limited to standard submission forms and
deadlines.

form of documents to be filed with the Secretary of State and may refuse to
accept for filing certified copies that do not comply with the rules. In
addition, the Secretary of State shall publish and maintain the Illinois
Register and may prescribe reasonable rules setting forth the manner in

once each week on the same day (unless that day is an official State
holiday, in which case the Illinois Register shall be published on the next
following business day) and sent to subscribers who subscribe for the
publication with the Secretary of State. The Secretary of State may charge

Register all Pollution Control Board documents, including but not limited
to Board opinions, the results of Board determinations concerning adjusted
standards proceedings, notices of petitions for individual adjusted

Sec. 5-75.
Incorporation by reference.
(a) An agency may incorporate by reference, in its rules adopted under
Section 5-35, rules, regulations, standards, and guidelines of an agency of
the United States or a nationally or state recognized organization or
association without publishing the incorporated material in full. The
reference in the agency rules must fully identify the incorporated matter
by publisher address and date in order to specify how a copy of the
material may be obtained and must state that the rule, regulation,
standard, or guideline does not include any later amendments or editions.
An agency may incorporate by reference these matters in its rules only if
the agency, organization, or association originally issuing the matter
makes copies readily available to the public. This Section does not apply
to any agency internal manual.
For any law imposing taxes on or measured by income, the Department of
Revenue may promulgate rules that include incorporations by reference of
federal rules or regulations without identifying the incorporated matter by
date and without including a statement that the incorporation does not
include later amendments.
(b) Use of the incorporation by reference procedure under this Section
shall be reviewed by the Joint Committee on Administrative Rules during the
rulemaking process as set forth in this Act.
(c) The agency adopting a rule, regulation, standard, or guideline
under this Section shall maintain a copy of the referenced rule,
regulation, standard, or guideline in at least one of its principal offices
and shall make it available to the public upon request for inspection and
copying at no more than cost. Requests for copies of materials incorporated
by reference shall not be deemed Freedom of Information Act requests unless so
labeled by the requestor. The agency shall designate by rule the
agency location at which incorporated materials are maintained and made
available to the public for inspection and copying. These rules may be
adopted under the procedures in Section 5-15. In addition, the agency may
include the designation of the agency location of incorporated materials in
a rulemaking under Section 5-35, but emergency and peremptory rulemaking
procedures may not be used solely for this purpose.

Publication of rules.
(a) The Secretary of State shall, by rule, prescribe a uniform
system for the codification of rules. The Secretary of State shall also,
by rule, establish a schedule for compliance with the uniform codification
system. The Secretary of State shall not adopt any codification system or
schedule under this subsection without the approval of the Joint Committee
on Administrative Rules. Approval by the Joint Committee shall be
conditioned solely upon establishing that the proposed codification system
and schedule are compatible with existing electronic data processing
equipment and programs maintained by and for the General Assembly. Nothing
in this Section shall prohibit an agency from adopting rules in compliance
with the codification system earlier than specified in the schedule.
(b) Each rule proposed in compliance with the codification system shall
be reviewed by the Secretary of State before the expiration of the public
notice period under subsection (b) of Section 5-40. The Secretary of State
shall cooperate with agencies in the Secretary of State's review to insure
that the purposes of the codification system are accomplished. The
Secretary of State shall have the authority to make changes in the
numbering and location of the rule in the codification scheme if those
changes do not affect the meaning of the rules. The Secretary of State may
recommend changes in the sectioning and headings proposed by the agency and
suggest grammatical and technical changes to correct errors. The Secretary
of State may add notes concerning the statutory authority, dates proposed
and adopted, and other similar notes to the text of the rules, if the notes
are not supplied by the agency. This review by the Secretary of State
shall be for the purpose of insuring the uniformity of and compliance with
the codification system. The Secretary of State shall prepare indexes by
agency, subject matter, and statutory authority and any other necessary
indexes, tables, and other aids for locating rules to assist the public in
the use of the Code.
(c) The Secretary of State shall make available to the agency and the Joint
Committee on Administrative Rules copies of the changes in the numbering
and location of the rule in the codification scheme, the recommended changes
in the sectioning and headings, and the suggestions made concerning the
correction of grammatical and technical errors or other suggested changes.
The agency, in the notice required by subsection (c) of Section 5-40, shall
provide to the Joint Committee a response to the recommendations of the
Secretary of State including any reasons for not adopting the recommendations.
(d) If a reorganization of agencies, transfer of functions between
agencies, or abolishment of agencies by executive order or law affects
rules on file with the Secretary of State, the Secretary of State shall
notify the Governor, the Attorney General, and the agencies involved of the
effects upon the rules on file. If the Governor or the agencies involved
do not respond to the Secretary of State's notice within 45 days by
instructing the Secretary of State to delete or transfer the rules, the
Secretary of State may delete or place the rules under the appropriate
agency for the purpose of insuring the consistency of the codification
scheme and shall notify the Governor, the Attorney General,
and the agencies involved.
(e) (Blank).
(f) The Secretary of State shall ensure that the Illinois
Administrative Code is published and made available to the public in a form
that is updated at least annually. The Code shall contain the complete
text of all rules of all State agencies filed with the Secretary's
office and effective on October 1, 1984, or later and the indexes, tables, and
other aids for locating rules prepared by the Secretary of State. The Secretary
of State shall design the Illinois Register to supplement the Code. The
Secretary of State shall ensure that copies of the Illinois
Register are available to the public and governmental entities and
agencies.
If the Secretary of State determines that the Secretary's office will
publish and distribute either the Register or the Code, the Secretary shall
make copies available to the public at a reasonable fee, established by the
Secretary by rule, and shall make copies available to governmental entities and
agencies at a price covering publication and mailing costs only.
The Secretary of State shall make the electronically stored database of the
Illinois Register and the Code available in accordance with this Section and
Section 5.08 of the Legislative Information System Act.
(g) The publication of a rule in the Code or in the Illinois Register
as an adopted rule shall establish a rebuttable presumption that the rule
was duly filed and that the text of the rule as published in the Code is
the text of the rule as adopted. Publication of the text of a rule in any
other location whether by the agency or some other person shall not be taken
as establishing such a presumption. Judicial or official notice
shall be taken of the text of each rule published in the Code or Register.
(h) The codification system, the indexes, tables, and other aids for
locating rules prepared by the Secretary of State, notes, and other materials
developed under this Section in connection with the publication of the Illinois
Administrative Code and the Illinois Register shall be the official
compilations of the administrative rules of Illinois and shall be entirely in
the public domain for purposes of federal copyright law.
(i) The Legislative Information System shall maintain on its electronic
data processing equipment the complete text of the Illinois Register and
Illinois Administrative Code created in compliance with this Act. This
electronic information shall be made available for use in the publication of
the Illinois Register and Illinois Administrative Code by the Secretary of
State if the Secretary determines that his office will publish these materials
as authorized by subsection (f).
(j) The Legislative Information System, upon consultation with the Joint
Committee on Administrative Rules and the Secretary of State, shall make the
electronically stored database of the Illinois Register and the Illinois
Administrative Code available in an electronically stored medium to those who
request it. The Legislative Information System shall establish and charge a
reasonable fee for providing the electronic information. Amounts received
under this Section shall be deposited into the General Assembly Computer

Sec. 5-85.
Correction of rules filed with the Secretary of State.
(a) Corrections to a proposed rulemaking that has been published in the
Illinois Register but is not yet adopted shall be made pursuant to the
rules of the Secretary of State. Corrections to an adopted rulemaking that
has been published in the Illinois Register shall be made by initiating a
new rulemaking or pursuant to subsection (b).
(b) Expedited corrections to any form of adopted rule that has been
published in the Illinois Register shall be made pursuant to the procedures
set forth in this subsection (b) and the rules of the Joint Committee on
Administrative Rules adopted pursuant to this subsection (b).
An agency may request that the Joint Committee on Administrative Rules
issue a certification of correction under this subsection (b) to correct:
(1) non-substantive errors such as typographical, clerical, grammatical,
printing, copying or other inadvertent errors such as omission of existing
or inclusion of previously repealed Illinois Administrative Code text; (2)
any omissions or errors that create unintentional discrepancies
between adopted rule text and text previously published in the Illinois
Register or second notice rule text; or (3) any discrepancies between
adopted rule text and agreements certified by the Joint Committee on
Administrative Rules during the second notice period.
In requesting the Joint Committee on Administrative Rules to issue a
certification of correction, the agency shall specify which of the above
reasons for correction is applicable and shall submit the full affected
Section of the Code, indicating both the incorrect text and the agency's
proposal for correcting the error. The Joint Committee on Administrative
Rules shall verify that the requested correction meets the criteria of this
subsection (b), that the public interest will be served and no hardship
created by remediation of the error or omission more quickly than could be
accomplished by the regular rulemaking process, and that the public notice
considerations of this Act are not being unduly circumvented.
Upon receiving a certification of correction from the Joint Committee on
Administrative Rules, an agency shall file a notice of correction with the
Secretary of State for publication in the next available issue of the
Illinois Register. Pursuant to agreement between the Joint Committee on
Administrative Rules and the agency, the effective date of the correction
shall be identical to that of the adopted rule being corrected or a specified
later date.
The agency shall take reasonable and appropriate measures to make
rule corrections known to persons who may be affected by them.

Sec. 5-110.
Responsibilities of the Joint Committee with respect to proposed
rules, amendments, or repealers.
(a) The Joint Committee shall examine any proposed rule, amendment to a
rule, and repeal of a rule to determine whether the proposed rule, amendment to
a rule, or repeal of a rule is within the statutory authority upon which it is
based; whether the rule, amendment to a rule, or repeal of a rule is in proper
form; and whether the notice was given before its adoption, amendment, or
repeal and was sufficient to give adequate notice of the purpose and effect of
the rule, amendment, or repeal. In addition, the Joint Committee may consider
whether the agency has considered alternatives to the rule that are consistent
with the stated objectives of both the applicable statutes and regulations and
whether the rule is designed to minimize economic impact on small businesses.
(b) If the Joint Committee objects to a proposed rule, amendment to
a rule, or repeal of a rule, it shall certify the fact to the issuing
agency and include with the certification a statement of its specific
objections.
(c) If within the second notice period the Joint Committee certifies its
objections to the issuing agency, then that agency shall do one of the
following within 90 days after receiving the statement of objection:
(1) Modify the proposed rule, amendment, or repealer | ||
| ||
(2) Withdraw the proposed rule, amendment, or | ||
| ||
(3) Refuse to modify or withdraw the proposed rule, | ||
| ||
(d) If an agency elects to modify a proposed rule, amendment, or
repealer to meet the Joint Committee's objections, it shall make
those modifications that are necessary to meet the
objections and shall resubmit the rule, amendment, or repealer to the Joint
Committee. In addition, the agency shall submit a notice of its election to
modify the proposed rule, amendment, or repealer to meet the Joint
Committee's objections to the Secretary of State, and the notice shall be
published in the first available issue of the Illinois Register, but the
agency shall not be required to conduct a public hearing. If the Joint
Committee determines that the modifications do not remedy the Joint
Committee's objections, it shall so notify the agency in writing and shall
submit a copy of that notification to the Secretary of State for
publication in the next available issue of the Illinois Register. In
addition, the Joint Committee may recommend legislative action as provided
in subsection (g) for agency refusals.
(e) If an agency elects to withdraw a proposed rule,
amendment, or repealer as a result of the Joint Committee's objections,
it shall notify the Joint Committee in writing of its election and
shall submit a notice of the withdrawal to the Secretary of State. The
notice shall be published in the next available issue of the Illinois Register.
(f) Failure of an agency to respond to the Joint Committee's objections
to a proposed rule, amendment, or repealer within the time prescribed in
subsection (c) shall constitute withdrawal of the proposed rule, amendment,
or repealer in its entirety. The Joint Committee shall submit a notice
to that effect to the Secretary of State, and the notice shall be published
in the next available issue of the Illinois Register. The Secretary of
State shall refuse to accept for filing a certified copy of the proposed
rule, amendment, or repealer under the provisions of Section 5-65.
(g) If an agency refuses to modify or withdraw the proposed rule, amendment,
or repealer to remedy an objection stated by the Joint Committee,
it shall notify the Joint Committee in writing of its refusal and shall
submit a notice of refusal to the Secretary of State. The notice shall be
published in the next available issue of the Illinois Register. If the
Joint Committee decides to recommend legislative action in response to an
agency refusal, then the Joint Committee shall have drafted and introduced
into either house of the General Assembly appropriate legislation to
implement the recommendations of the Joint Committee.
(h) No rule, amendment, or repeal of a rule shall be accepted by the
Secretary of State for filing under Section 5-65, if the rulemaking is subject
to this Section, until after the agency has responded to the objections
of the Joint Committee as provided in this Section.

Sec. 5-115. Other action by the Joint Committee.
(a) If the Joint Committee determines that the adoption and effectiveness
of a proposed rule, amendment, or repealer or portion of a proposed rule,
amendment, or repealer by an agency would be objectionable under any of the
standards for the Joint Committee's review specified in Section 5-100,
5-105, 5-110, 5-120, or 5-130 and would constitute a serious threat
to the public interest, safety, or welfare, the Joint Committee may
issue a statement to that effect at any time before the proposed rule,
amendment, or repealer takes effect. The statement may be issued by the
Joint Committee only upon the affirmative vote of three-fifths of the
members appointed to the Joint Committee. The Joint Committee, however, may withdraw a statement within 180 days after it is issued upon the affirmative vote of a majority of the members appointed to the Joint Committee. A certified copy of each
statement and withdrawal shall be transmitted to the proposing agency and to the Secretary
of State for publication in the next available issue of the Illinois Register.
(b) The proposed rule, amendment, or repealer or the portion of the proposed
rule, amendment, or repealer to which the Joint Committee has issued a
statement under subsection (a) shall not be accepted for filing by the
Secretary of State and shall not take effect unless the statement is withdrawn or a joint resolution is passed as provided in subsection (c). The agency may not enforce or
invoke for any reason a proposed rule, amendment, or repealer or any
portion thereof that is prohibited from being filed by this subsection.
(c) After the issuance
of a statement under subsection (a), any member of the General Assembly may introduce in
the General
Assembly a joint resolution stating that the General Assembly desires to discontinue the prohibition against the proposed rule, amendment, or repealer
or the portion thereof to which the statement was issued being filed and
taking effect. If the joint
resolution is not passed by both houses of the General Assembly within 180
days after receipt of the statement by the Secretary of State or the statement is not withdrawn as provided in subsection (a), the agency shall be prohibited from
filing the proposed rule, amendment, or repealer or the portion thereof and
the proposed rule, amendment, or repealer or the portion thereof
shall not take effect. The Secretary of State shall not accept for filing
the proposed rule, amendment, or repealer or the portion thereof with respect to which the Joint Committee has issued a statement under subsection (a) unless that statement is withdrawn or a joint resolution is passed as provided in this subsection. If the 180-day period expires before
passage of the joint resolution, the agency may not file the proposed rule,
amendment, or repealer or the portion thereof as adopted and it shall not
take effect.
(d) If a statement is issued under this Section, then, in response to an objection or suggestion of the Joint Committee, the agency may propose changes to the proposed rule, amendment, or repealer or portion of a proposed rule, amendment, or repealer. If the agency proposes changes, it must provide additional notice to the Joint Committee under the same terms and conditions and shall be subject to the same requirements and limitations as those set forth for a second notice period under subsection (c) of Section 5-40.

(a) The Joint Committee may examine any rule to determine whether the rule
is within the statutory authority upon which it is based and whether the rule
is in proper form.
(b) If the Joint Committee objects to a rule, it shall, within 5 days
of the objection, certify the fact to the adopting agency and include within
the certification a statement of its specific objections.
(c) Within 90 days after receiving the certification, the agency shall
do one of the following:

| ||
(2) Notify the Joint Committee that it has elected to | ||
| ||
(3) Notify the Joint Committee that it refuses to | ||

(d) If the agency elects to amend a rule to meet the Joint Committee's
objections, it shall notify the Joint Committee in writing and shall initiate
rulemaking procedures for that purpose by giving notice as required by
Section 5-35. The Joint Committee shall give priority to rules
so amended when setting its agenda.
(e) If the agency elects to repeal a rule as a result of the Joint
Committee's objections, it shall notify the Joint Committee in writing of
its election and shall initiate rulemaking procedures for that purpose by
giving notice as required by Section 5-35.
(f) If the agency elects to amend or repeal a rule as a result of the
Joint Committee's objections, it shall complete the process within 180 days
after giving notice in the Illinois Register.
(g) Failure of the agency to respond to the Joint Committee's objections
to a rule within the time prescribed in subsection (c) shall constitute
a refusal to amend or repeal the rule.
(h) If an agency refuses to amend or repeal a rule to remedy an
objection stated by the Joint Committee, it shall notify the Joint Committee
in writing of its refusal and shall submit a notice of refusal to the Secretary
of State. The notice shall be published in the next available issue of the
Illinois Register. If the Joint Committee, in response to an agency
refusal, decides to suspend a rule adopted under Section 5-45 or 5-50, then it may do so pursuant to Section 5-125.

peremptory rulemaking.
(a) If the Joint Committee determines that a rule or portion of a rule
adopted under Section 5-45 or 5-50 is objectionable under any of the standards
for the Joint Committee's review specified in Section 5-100, 5-105, 5-110,
5-120, or 5-130 and constitutes a serious threat to the public interest,
safety, or welfare, the Joint Committee may issue a statement to that effect.
The statement may be issued by the Joint Committee only upon the affirmative
vote of three-fifths of the members appointed to the Joint Committee. The Joint Committee, however, may withdraw a statement within 180 days after it is issued upon the affirmative vote of a majority of the members appointed to the Joint Committee. A
certified copy of each statement and withdrawal shall be transmitted to the affected agency and
to the Secretary of State for publication in the next available issue of the
Illinois Register. Within 30 days of transmittal of the statement to the
agency, the agency shall notify the Joint Committee in writing whether it has
elected to repeal or amend the rule. Failure of the agency to notify the Joint
Committee and Secretary of State within 30 days constitutes a decision by the
agency to not repeal the rule.
(b) The effectiveness of the rule or the portion of a rule shall be
suspended immediately upon receipt of the certified
statement by the Secretary of State. The Secretary of State shall indicate
the suspension prominently and clearly on the face of the affected rule or
the portion of a rule filed in the Office of the Secretary of State. Rules
or portions of rules suspended under this subsection shall not become effective
again unless the statement is withdrawn as provided in subsection (a) or unless within 180 days from receipt of the statement by the
Secretary of State, the General Assembly discontinues the suspension
by joint resolution under subsection (c). The agency may not enforce, or invoke for any
reason, a rule or portion of a rule that has been suspended under this
subsection.
During the 180-day period, the agency may not file, and
the Secretary of State may not accept for filing, any rule that (i) has the
same purpose and effect as rules or portions of rules suspended under this
subsection or (ii) does not substantially address the statement issued under subsection (a), except as otherwise provided in this Section.
(c) After the issuance of
a statement under subsection (a), any member of the General Assembly may introduce in the General Assembly a joint resolution stating that the General Assembly
desires to discontinue the suspension of effectiveness of a rule or the portion
of the rule to which the statement was issued. If the joint resolution is not passed by both houses of the
General Assembly within the 180-day period provided in subsection (b) or the statement is not withdrawn, the
rule or the portion of the rule shall be considered repealed and the
Secretary of State shall immediately remove the rule or portion of a rule
from the collection of effective rules.
(d) If a statement is issued under this Section, then, in response to an objection or suggestion of the Joint Committee, the agency may propose changes to the rule, amendment, or repealer or portion of a rule, amendment, or repealer. If the agency proposes changes, it must provide additional notice to the Joint Committee under the same terms and conditions and shall be subject to the same requirements and limitations as those set forth for a second notice period under subsection (c) of Section 5-40.

References to this Act.
After the effective date of this
amendatory Act of 1991, when rules contain references to Sections of this
Act as they were numbered before the effective date of this amendatory Act
of 1991, agencies shall within one year amend those rules to change the
references to the Section numbers created by this amendatory Act of 1991.

Sec. 5-165. Ex parte communications in rulemaking; special government
agents.
(a) Notwithstanding any law to the contrary,
this
Section applies to ex
parte communications made during the rulemaking process.
(b) "Ex parte communication" means any written or oral communication by any
person during the rulemaking period that imparts or requests
material
information
or makes a material argument regarding
potential action concerning an agency's general, emergency, or peremptory
rulemaking under
this Act and that is communicated to that agency, the head of that agency,
or any other employee of that agency.
For purposes of this Section, the rulemaking period begins upon the
commencement of the first
notice period with respect to general rulemaking under Section 5-40, upon the
filing of a
notice of emergency rulemaking under Section 5-45, or upon the filing of a
notice of rulemaking with respect to peremptory rulemaking under Section 5-50.
"Ex parte
communication" does not include the following: (i) statements by
a person publicly made in a public forum; (ii) statements regarding
matters of procedure and practice, such as the format of public comments, the
number of copies required, the manner of filing such comments, and the status
of a rulemaking proceeding; and (iii) statements made by a
State employee of that agency to the agency head or other employee of that
agency.
(c) An ex parte communication received by any agency, agency head, or
other agency
employee shall immediately be reported to that agency's ethics officer by the
recipient of the communication and by any other employee of that agency who
responds to the communication. The ethics officer shall require that the ex
parte communication promptly be made a
part of the record of the rulemaking proceeding. The ethics officer shall
promptly file the ex parte communication with the
Executive Ethics Commission, including all written
communications, all written responses to the communications, and a memorandum
prepared by the ethics officer stating the nature and substance of all
oral communications, the identity and job title of the person to whom each
communication was made,
all responses made, the identity and job title of the person making each
response,
the identity of each person from whom the written or oral ex parte
communication was received, the individual or entity represented by that
person, any action the person requested or recommended, and any other pertinent
information.
The disclosure shall also contain the date of any
ex parte communication.
(d) Failure to take certain actions under this Section may constitute a
violation as provided in Section 5-50 of the State Officials and Employees
Ethics Act.

(a) A final decision or order adverse to a party (other than the agency)
in a contested case shall be in writing or stated in the record. A final
decision shall include findings of fact and conclusions of law, separately
stated. Findings of fact, if set forth in statutory language, shall be
accompanied by a concise and explicit statement of the underlying facts
supporting the findings. If, in accordance with agency rules, a party
submitted proposed findings of fact, the decision shall include a ruling
upon each proposed finding. Parties or their agents appointed to receive
service of process shall be notified either personally, by registered or

(b) All agency orders shall specify whether they are final and subject
to the Administrative Review Law. Every final order shall contain a list of all parties of record to the case including the name and address of the agency or officer entering the order and the addresses of each party as known to the agency where the parties may be served with pleadings, notices, or service of process for any review or further proceedings. Every final order shall also state whether the rules of the agency require any motion or request for reconsideration and cite the rule for the requirement.

(5 ILCS 100/10-55) (from Ch. 127, par. 1010-55)
Sec. 10-55.
Expenses and attorney's fees.
(a) In any contested case initiated by any agency that does
not proceed to court for judicial review and on any issue where a court
does not have jurisdiction to make an award of litigation expenses under
Section 2-611 of the Civil Practice Law, any allegation made by the agency
without reasonable cause and found to be untrue shall subject the agency
making the allegation to the payment of the reasonable expenses, including
reasonable attorney's fees, actually incurred in defending against that
allegation by the party against whom the case was initiated. A claimant may
not recover litigation expenses when the parties have executed a settlement
agreement that, while not stipulating liability or violation, requires the
claimant to take correction action or pay a monetary sum.
(b) The claimant shall make a demand for litigation expenses to the
agency. If the claimant is dissatisfied because of the agency's failure to
make any award or because of the insufficiency of the agency's award, the
claimant may petition the Court of Claims for the amount deemed owed. If
allowed any recovery by the Court of Claims, the claimant shall also be
entitled to reasonable attorney's fees and the reasonable expenses incurred
in making a claim for the expenses incurred in the administrative action.
The Court of Claims may reduce the amount of the litigation expenses to be
awarded under this Section, or deny an award, to the extent that the
claimant engaged in conduct during the course of the proceeding that unduly
and unreasonably protracted the final resolution of the matter in controversy.
(c) In any case in which a party has any administrative rule invalidated
by a court for any reason, including but not limited to the agency's exceeding
its statutory authority or the agency's failure to follow statutory procedures
in the adoption of the rule, the court shall award the party bringing the
action the reasonable expenses of the litigation, including reasonable
attorney's fees.

law to entertain or dispose of on an ex parte basis, agency heads, agency
employees, and administrative law judges shall not, after notice of hearing
in a contested case or licensing to which the procedures of a contested
case apply under this Act, communicate, directly or indirectly, in
connection with any issue of fact, with any person or party, or in
connection with any other issue with any party or the representative of any
party, except upon notice and opportunity for all parties to participate.
(b) However, an agency member may communicate with other members of
the agency, and an agency member or administrative law judge may have
the aid and advice of one or more personal assistants.
(c) An ex parte communication received by any agency head, agency
employee, or administrative law judge shall be made a part of the record of
the pending matter, including all written communications, all written
responses to the communications, and a memorandum stating the substance of
all oral communications and all responses made and the identity of each
person from whom the ex parte communication was received.
(d) Communications regarding matters of procedure and practice, such
as the format of pleadings, number of copies required, manner of service,
and status of proceedings, are not considered ex parte communications under
this Section.

(5 ILCS 100/10-63) Sec. 10-63. Stay of contested case hearings; military. (a) In this Section: "Military service" means any full-time training or duty, no matter how described under federal or State law, for which a service member is ordered to report by the President, Governor of a state, commonwealth, or territory of the United States, or other appropriate military authority. "Service member" means a resident of Illinois who is a member of any component of the U.S. Armed Forces or the National Guard of any state, the District of Columbia, a commonwealth, or a territory of the United States. (b) In a contested case in which a named party is a service member who has entered military service, for a period of 14 days that follow the conclusion of military service, the administrative law judge shall, upon motion made by or on behalf of the service member, stay the hearing for a period of 90 days if the service member's ability to appear at the hearing is materially affected by his or her military service. (c) In order to be eligible for the benefits granted to service members under this Section, a service member must demonstrate that his or her military service has been in excess of 29 consecutive days and has materially affected his or her ability to attend the hearing by submitting a letter to the administrative law judge from the service member's commanding officer stating that the service member's military duty has prevented the service member from appearing at the hearing and that military leave has not been authorized. The service member must also provide the administrative law judge with an approximate date of availability. (d) Additional stays of the contested case hearing shall be permitted at the discretion of the administrative law judge if all of the requirements of this Section are met. (e) A violation of this Section constitutes a civil rights violation under the Illinois Human Rights Act. All proceeds from the collection of any civil penalty
imposed under this subsection shall be deposited into the Illinois Military Family Relief Fund.

(5 ILCS 100/10-65) (from Ch. 127, par. 1010-65)
Sec. 10-65. Licenses.
(a) When any licensing is required by law to be preceded by notice and
an opportunity for a hearing, the provisions of this Act concerning
contested cases shall apply.
(b) When a licensee has made timely and sufficient application for
the renewal of a license or a new license with reference to any activity
of a continuing nature, the existing license shall continue in full
force and effect until the final agency decision on the application has
been made unless a later date is fixed by order of a reviewing court.
(c) An application for a new license
shall include the applicant's social security number, which shall be retained in the agency's records pertaining to the license. As soon as practical, an agency must assign a customer identification number to each applicant for a license that the applicant may use in place of his or her social security number on the application for a license or renewal of a license. A licensee's social security number shall not appear on the face of his or her license. Each agency shall require
the licensee to certify on the
application form, under penalty of perjury, that he or she is not more than
30 days delinquent in complying with a child support order. Every
application shall state that failure to so certify shall result in
disciplinary action, and that making a false statement may subject
the licensee
to contempt of court. The agency shall notify each applicant or licensee
who
acknowledges a delinquency or who, contrary to his or her certification, is
found to be delinquent or who after receiving notice, fails to comply with a
subpoena or warrant relating to a paternity or a child support proceeding,
that the agency intends to take disciplinary
action. Accordingly, the agency shall provide written notice of the facts
or conduct upon which the agency will rely to support its proposed action
and the applicant or licensee shall be given an opportunity for a hearing
in accordance
with the provisions of the Act concerning contested cases. Any delinquency
in complying with a child support order can be remedied by arranging for
payment of past due and current support. Any failure to comply with a
subpoena or warrant relating to a paternity or child support proceeding can be
remedied by complying with the subpoena or warrant. Upon a final finding of
delinquency or failure to comply with a subpoena or warrant, the agency
shall suspend, revoke, or refuse to issue or renew the license.
In cases in which the Department of Healthcare and Family Services (formerly Department of Public Aid) has previously determined that
an applicant or a
licensee is more than 30 days delinquent in the
payment
of child support and has subsequently certified the delinquency to the
licensing agency,
and in cases in which a court has previously determined that an applicant or
licensee has
been in violation of the Non-Support Punishment Act
for more than 60 days,
the licensing agency shall refuse to issue or
renew or shall
revoke or suspend that person's license based solely upon the certification of
delinquency made
by
the Department of Healthcare and Family Services (formerly
Department of Public Aid) or the certification of violation made by the
court. Further process, hearings, or
redetermination of the delinquency or violation by the
licensing agency shall not be required. The licensing agency may issue or
renew a license if the licensee has arranged for payment of
past and current child support obligations in a manner satisfactory to
the
Department of Healthcare and Family Services (formerly Department of Public Aid) or the court. The licensing agency may impose
conditions,
restrictions, or disciplinary action upon that license.
(d) Except as provided in subsection (c), no agency shall revoke,
suspend, annul, withdraw, amend
materially, or refuse to renew any valid license without first giving
written notice to the licensee of the facts or conduct upon which the
agency will rely to support its proposed action and an opportunity for
a hearing in accordance with the provisions of this Act concerning
contested cases. At the hearing, the licensee shall have the right
to show compliance with all lawful requirements for the retention,
continuation, or renewal of the license. If, however, the agency finds
that the public interest, safety, or welfare imperatively requires
emergency action, and if the agency incorporates a finding to that
effect in its order, summary suspension of a license may be ordered
pending proceedings for revocation or other action. Those proceedings
shall be promptly instituted and determined.
(e) Any application for renewal of a license that contains
required and relevant information, data, material, or circumstances that
were not contained in an application for the existing license shall be
subject to the provisions of subsection (a).
