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





 
    Section 5. The Illinois Lottery Law is amended by changing 
Section 2 as follows:
 


    (20 ILCS 1605/2)  (from Ch. 120, par. 1152)


    Sec. 2. This Act is enacted to implement and establish 
within the State
a lottery to be conducted by the State through 
the Department. The entire net proceeds of the Lottery
are to 
be used for the support of the State's Common School Fund,

except as provided in subsection (o) of Section 9.1 and 
Sections 21.5, 21.6, 21.7, 21.8, and 21.9. The General Assembly 
finds that it is in the public interest for the Department to 
conduct the functions of the Lottery with the assistance of a 
private manager under a management agreement overseen by the 
Department.  The Department shall be accountable to the General 
Assembly and the people of the State through a comprehensive 
system of regulation, audits, reports, and enduring 
operational oversight.  The Department's ongoing conduct of the 
Lottery through a management agreement with a private manager 
shall act to promote and ensure the integrity, security, 
honesty, and fairness of the Lottery's operation and 
administration.  It is the intent of the General Assembly that 
the Department shall conduct the Lottery with the assistance of 
a private manager under a management agreement at all times in 
a manner consistent with 18 U.S.C. 1307(a)(1), 1307(b)(1), 
1953(b)(4). 

    Beginning with Fiscal Year 2018 and every year thereafter, 
any moneys transferred from the State Lottery Fund to the 
Common School Fund shall be supplemental to, and not in lieu 
of, any other money due to be transferred to the Common School 
Fund by law or appropriation.
