    (g-5) (Blank).
    (h) The Illinois Department of State Police shall be the
State central repository for all genetic marker grouping
analysis information obtained pursuant to this Act. The
Illinois Department of State Police may promulgate rules for
the form and manner of the collection of blood, saliva, or
tissue samples and other procedures for the operation of this
Act. The provisions of the Administrative Review Law shall
apply to all actions taken under the rules so promulgated.
    (i) (1) A person required to provide a blood, saliva, or
    tissue specimen shall cooperate with the collection of the
    specimen and any deliberate act by that person intended to
    impede, delay or stop the collection of the blood, saliva,
    or tissue specimen is a Class A misdemeanor.
        (2) In the event that a person's DNA sample is not
    adequate for any reason, the person shall provide another
    DNA sample for analysis. Duly authorized law enforcement
    and corrections personnel may employ reasonable force in
    cases in which an individual refuses to provide a DNA
    sample required under this Act.
    (j) Any person required by subsection (a) to submit
specimens of blood, saliva, or tissue to the Illinois
Department of State Police for analysis and categorization into
genetic marker grouping, in addition to any other disposition,
penalty, or fine imposed, shall pay an analysis fee of $200. If
the analysis fee is not paid at the time of sentencing, the
court shall establish a fee schedule by which the entire amount
of the analysis fee shall be paid in full, such schedule not to
exceed 24 months from the time of conviction. The inability to
pay this analysis fee shall not be the sole ground to
incarcerate the person.
    (k) All analysis and categorization fees provided for by
subsection (j) shall be regulated as follows:
        (1) The State Offender DNA Identification System Fund
    is hereby created as a special fund in the State Treasury.
        (2) All fees shall be collected by the clerk of the
    court and forwarded to the State Offender DNA
    Identification System Fund for deposit. The clerk of the
    circuit court may retain the amount of $10 from each
    collected analysis fee to offset administrative costs
    incurred in carrying out the clerk's responsibilities
    under this Section.
        (3) Fees deposited into the State Offender DNA
    Identification System Fund shall be used by Illinois State
    Police crime laboratories as designated by the Director of
    State Police. These funds shall be in addition to any
    allocations made pursuant to existing laws and shall be
    designated for the exclusive use of State crime
    laboratories. These uses may include, but are not limited
    to, the following:
            (A) Costs incurred in providing analysis and
        genetic marker categorization as required by
        subsection (d).
            (B) Costs incurred in maintaining genetic marker
        groupings as required by subsection (e).
            (C) Costs incurred in the purchase and maintenance
        of equipment for use in performing analyses.
            (D) Costs incurred in continuing research and
        development of new techniques for analysis and genetic
        marker categorization.
            (E) Costs incurred in continuing education,
        training, and professional development of forensic
        scientists regularly employed by these laboratories.
    (l) The failure of a person to provide a specimen, or of
any person or agency to collect a specimen, within the 45 day
period shall in no way alter the obligation of the person to
submit such specimen, or the authority of the Illinois
Department of State Police or persons designated by the
Department to collect the specimen, or the authority of the
Illinois Department of State Police to accept, analyze and
maintain the specimen or to maintain or upload results of
genetic marker grouping analysis information into a State or
national database.
    (m) If any provision of this amendatory Act of the 93rd
General Assembly is held unconstitutional or otherwise
invalid, the remainder of this amendatory Act of the 93rd
General Assembly is not affected.
