10    paragraphs 7, 8, and 9 of subsection B.
11        B.  Any governmental entity subject to subsection  A  may
12    elect  to  make payments in lieu of contributions, in amounts
13    equal to the amounts of regular and extended benefits paid to
14    individuals, for any  weeks  which  begin  on  or  after  the
15    effective  date  of  the  election, on the basis of wages for
16    insured work paid to them by the entity during the  effective
17    period   of  such  election.  Notwithstanding  the  preceding
18    provisions  of  this  subsection  and   the   provisions   of
19    subsection  D  of Section 1404, with respect to benefit years
20    beginning  prior  to  July  1,  1989,  any  adjustment  after
21    September 30, 1989 to the  base  period  wages  paid  to  the
22    individual  by  any  employer  shall not affect the ratio for
23    determining  payments  in  lieu   of   contributions   of   a
24    governmental  entity  which  has  elected to make payments in
25    lieu of contributions.  Provided, however, that with  respect
26    to  benefit  years  beginning  on  or after July 1, 1989, the
27    governmental entity shall be required to make payments  equal
28    to   100%   of   regular   benefits,   including  dependents'
29    allowances,  and  100%  of   extended   benefits,   including
30    dependents' allowances, paid to an individual with respect to
31    benefit  years  beginning  during the effective period of the
32    election, but only if the governmental entity:   (a)  is  the
33    last  employer  as provided in Section 1502.1 and (b) paid to
34    the individual receiving benefits,  wages  for  insured  work
 
                            -11-               LRB9211182DJmg
 1    during his base period.  If the governmental entity described
 2    in  this paragraph meets the requirements of (a) but not (b),
 3    with respect to benefit years beginning on or after  July  1,
 4    1989,  it  shall  be  required  to make payments in an amount
 5    equal to  50%  of  regular  benefits,  including  dependents'
 6    allowances,   and   50%   of   extended  benefits,  including
 7    dependents' allowances, paid to an individual with respect to

10        1.  Any   such   governmental  entity  which  becomes  an
11    employer on January 1, 1978 pursuant to Section 205 may elect
12    to make payments in lieu of contributions for not  less  than
13    one  calendar  year  beginning with January 1, 1978, provided
14    that it files its written  election  with  the  Director  not
15    later than January 31, 1978.
16        2.  A  governmental entity newly created after January 1,
17    1978, may elect to make payments in lieu of contributions for
18    a period of not less than one calendar year beginning  as  of
19    the  first day with respect to which it would, in the absence
20    of  its  election,  incur  liability  for  the   payment   of
21    contributions,  provided  that  it files its written election
22    with  the  Director  not  later  than  30  days   immediately
23    following  the  end  of  the calendar quarter in which it has
24    been created.
25        3.  A governmental entity which  has  incurred  liability
26    for  the  payment  of  contributions  for at least 2 calendar
27    years, and is not delinquent  in  such  payment  and  in  the
28    payment  of any interest or penalties which may have accrued,
29    may elect to make payments in lieu of contributions beginning
30    January 1 of any calendar year, provided that  it  files  its
31    written  election  with the Director prior to such January 1,
32    and provided, further, that such  election  shall  be  for  a
33    period of not less than 2 calendar years.
34        4.  An election to make payments in lieu of contributions
 
                            -12-               LRB9211182DJmg
 1    shall  not terminate any liability incurred by a governmental
 2    entity  for  the  payment  of  contributions,   interest   or
 3    penalties  with  respect  to  any calendar quarter which ends
 4    prior to the effective period of the election.
 5        5.  The termination  by  a  governmental  entity  of  the
 6    effective  period of its election to make payments in lieu of
 7    contributions, and the filing of and subsequent  action  upon
 8    written notices of termination of election, shall be governed
 9    by  the  provisions  of  paragraphs 5 and 6 of Section 1404A,
10    pertaining to nonprofit organizations.
11        6.  With respect to benefit years beginning prior to July
12    1, 1989, wages paid to an individual during his  base  period
13    by  a  governmental  entity  which elects to make payments in
14    lieu of contributions for less than full time work, performed
15    during the same weeks in the base  period  during  which  the
16    individual  had  other  insured work, shall not be subject to
17    payments  in  lieu  of  contribution  (upon  such  employer's
18    request pursuant to the regulation of the Director)  so  long
19    as  the  employer continued after the end of the base period,
20    and continues during the applicable benefit year, to  furnish
21    such  less  than full time work to the individual on the same
22    basis and in substantially the same amount as during the base
23    period.  If the individual is paid benefits with respect to a
24    week (in the applicable benefit year) after the employer  has
25    ceased   to  furnish  the  work  hereinabove  described,  the
26    governmental entity shall be liable for payments in  lieu  of
27    contributions  with  respect  to  the  benefits  paid  to the
28    individual after the date on which  the  governmental  entity
29    ceases to furnish the work.
30        7.  An Indian tribe may elect to make payments in lieu of
31    contributions  for calendar year 2003, provided that it files
32    its written election with the Director not later than January
33    31, 2003, and provided further that it is not  delinquent  in
34    the payment of any contributions, interest, or penalties.

 1        8.  Failure  of an Indian tribe to make a payment in lieu
 2    of contributions, or a payment of interest or  penalties  due
 3    under  this  Act,  within 90 days after the Department serves
 4    notice of the finality  of  a  determination  and  assessment
 5    shall  cause  the  Indian  tribe to lose the option of making
 6    payments in  lieu  of  contributions,  effective  as  of  the
 7    calendar  year  immediately  following  the date on which the
 8    Department serves the notice.  Notice  of  the  loss  of  the
 9    option  to  make  payments  in  lieu  of contributions may be
10    protested  in  the  same  manner  as  a   determination   and
11    assessment under Section 2200 of this Act.
12        9.  An  Indian tribe that, pursuant to paragraph 8, loses
13    the option of making payments in lieu  of  contributions  may
14    again  elect  to make payments in lieu of contributions for a
15    calendar year if: (a) the Indian tribe has incurred liability
16    for the payment of contributions for at  least  one  calendar
17    year since losing the option pursuant to paragraph 8, (b) the
18    Indian  tribe  is  not  delinquent  in  the  payment  of  any
19    liabilities  under  the Act, including interest or penalties,
20    and (c) the Indian tribe files its written election with  the
21    Director  not  later than January 31 of the year with respect
22    to which it is making the election.
23        C.  As soon as practicable following the  close  of  each
24    calendar   quarter,   the   Director   shall   mail  to  each
25    governmental entity which has elected  to  make  payments  in
26    lieu  of  contributions a Statement of the amount due from it
27    for all the regular and extended  benefits  paid  during  the
28    calendar  quarter,  together with the names of its workers or
29    former workers and the amounts of benefits paid  to  each  of
30    them  during  the  calendar  quarter  with respect to benefit
31    years beginning prior to July 1, 1989, on the basis of  wages
32    for insured work paid to them by the governmental entity; or,
33    with  respect to benefit years beginning after June 30, 1989,
34    if such governmental entity was the last employer as provided
 
                            -14-               LRB9211182DJmg
 1    in Section 1502.1 with respect to a  benefit  year  beginning
 2    during  the  effective  period  of  the  election. All of the
 3    provisions of subsection B  of  Section  1404  pertaining  to
 4    nonprofit  organizations, not inconsistent with the preceding
 5    sentence,  shall  be  applicable  to  payments  in  lieu   of
 6    contributions by a governmental entity.
 7        D.  The provisions of subsections C through F, inclusive,
 8    of Section 1404, pertaining to nonprofit organizations, shall
 9    be  applicable  to each governmental entity which has elected
10    to make payments in lieu of contributions.
11        E. 1.  If an Indian tribe  fails  to  pay  any  liability
12    under this Act (including assessments of interest or penalty)
13    within  90  days  after the Department issues a notice of the
14    finality of a  determination  and  assessment,  the  Director
15    shall  immediately  notify the United States Internal Revenue
16    Service and the United States Department of Labor.
17        2.  Notices of payment  and  reporting  delinquencies  to
18    Indian  tribes shall include information that failure to make
19    full payment within the prescribed time frame:
20             a.  will  cause  the  Indian  tribe  to   lose   the
21        exemption  provided  by Section 3306(c)(7) of the Federal
22        Unemployment  Tax  Act  with  respect  to   the   federal
23        unemployment tax;
