AN ACT concerning public health.
|
Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,
|
represented in the General Assembly:
|
Section 5. The Poison Control System Act is amended by |
adding Section 13 as follows:
|
(410 ILCS 47/13 new) |
Sec. 13. Funding; study. To ensure the stability of funding |
for the Illinois Poison Control System, the Department of |
Public Health and the Illinois Poison Advisory Board shall |
conduct a study to determine the feasibility of establishing a |
formula that sets State goals for funding the System. As part |
of the study, the Department of Public Health and the Illinois |
Poison Advisory Board shall consider the adoption of a formula |
of funding for the Illinois Poison Control System that |
establishes a minimum threshold of funding set on a per capita |
basis. Also, as part of the study, the Department of Public |
Health and the Illinois Poison Advisory Board shall consider |
the feasibility of implementing a separate source of funding |
for the Illinois Poison Control System separate from the |
General Revenue Fund. The Department of Public Health and the |
Illinois Poison Advisory Board shall complete the study by |
December 31, 2005 and shall present their findings to the |
Illinois General Assembly for its consideration.
|
Section 99. Effective date. This Act takes effect upon |
becoming law.
