 1        AN ACT to  amend  the  Liquor  Control  Act  of  1934  by

 3        Be  it  enacted  by  the People of the State of Illinois,
 4    represented in the General Assembly:

 5        Section 5.  The Liquor Control Act of 1934 is amended  by
 6    changing Section 7-6 as follows:

 7        (235 ILCS 5/7-6) (from Ch. 43, par. 150)
 8        Sec.   7-6.    All  proceedings  for  the  revocation  or
 9    suspension  of  licenses  of   manufacturers,   distributors,
10    importing   distributors,   non-resident   dealers,   foreign
11    importers, non-beverage users, railroads, airplanes and boats
12    shall  be  before  the State Commission. All such proceedings
13    and all proceedings for the revocation  or  suspension  of  a
14    retailer's  license  before  the State commission shall be in
15    accordance with rules and regulations established by  it  not
16    inconsistent  with  law. However, no such license shall be so
17    revoked or suspended except after  a  hearing  by  the  State
18    commission  with  reasonable notice to the licensee served by
19    registered or certified mail with return receipt requested at
20    least 10 5 days prior to the hearings at the last known place
21    of business of the  licensee  and  after  an  opportunity  to
22    appear  and  defend.  Such  notice shall specify the time and
23    place of the hearing, and the  nature  of  the  charges,  the
24    specific  provisions  of  the Act and rules violated, and the
25    specific facts  supporting  the  charges  or  violation.  The
26    findings of the Commission shall be predicated upon competent
27    evidence.   The   revocation   of   a   local  license  shall
28    automatically result in the revocation of  a  State  license.
29    All procedures for the suspension or revocation of a license,
30    as  enumerated  above, are applicable to the levying of fines
31    for violations of this Act or any rule or  regulation  issued
