1 | AN ACT concerning criminal law.
| ||||||||||||||||||||||||
2 | Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,
| ||||||||||||||||||||||||
3 | represented in the General Assembly:
| ||||||||||||||||||||||||
4 | Section 5. The Illinois Administrative Procedure Act is | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
5 | amended by changing Section 5-45 as follows: | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
6 | (5 ILCS 100/5-45) (from Ch. 127, par. 1005-45) | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
7 | Sec. 5-45. Emergency rulemaking. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
8 | (a) "Emergency" means the existence of any situation that | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
9 | any agency
finds reasonably constitutes a threat to the public | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
10 | interest, safety, or
welfare. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
11 | (b) If any agency finds that an
emergency exists that | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
12 | requires adoption of a rule upon fewer days than
is required by | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
13 | Section 5-40 and states in writing its reasons for that
| ||||||||||||||||||||||||
14 | finding, the agency may adopt an emergency rule without prior | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
15 | notice or
hearing upon filing a notice of emergency rulemaking | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
16 | with the Secretary of
State under Section 5-70. The notice | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
17 | shall include the text of the
emergency rule and shall be | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
18 | published in the Illinois Register. Consent
orders or other | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
19 | court orders adopting settlements negotiated by an agency
may | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
20 | be adopted under this Section. Subject to applicable | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
21 | constitutional or
statutory provisions, an emergency rule | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
22 | becomes effective immediately upon
filing under Section 5-65 or | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
23 | at a stated date less than 10 days
thereafter. The agency's |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | finding and a statement of the specific reasons
for the finding | ||||||
2 | shall be filed with the rule. The agency shall take
reasonable | ||||||
3 | and appropriate measures to make emergency rules known to the
| ||||||
4 | persons who may be affected by them. | ||||||
5 | (c) An emergency rule may be effective for a period of not | ||||||
6 | longer than
150 days, but the agency's authority to adopt an | ||||||
7 | identical rule under Section
5-40 is not precluded. No | ||||||
8 | emergency rule may be adopted more
than once in any 24-month | ||||||
9 | period, except that this limitation on the number

3 | rape crisis counselor shall remain in the exam room during | ||||||
4 | the medical forensic examination.
| ||||||
5 | (9) Written information regarding services provided by | ||||||
6 | a Children's Advocacy Center and rape crisis center, if | ||||||
7 | applicable. | ||||||
8 | (10) A treatment hospital, a treatment hospital with | ||||||
9 | approved pediatric transfer, an out-of-state hospital as | ||||||
10 | defined in Section 5.4, or an approved pediatric health | ||||||

18 | services to a sexual assault survivor within 90 minutes of the | ||||||
19 | patient presenting to the treatment hospital or treatment | ||||||
20 | hospital with approved pediatric transfer. The provision of | ||||||

24 | medical forensic services or follow-up healthcare
under this | ||||||
25 | Act shall be provided such services without the consent
of any | ||||||
26 | parent, guardian, custodian, surrogate, or agent. If a sexual |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | assault survivor is unable to consent to medical forensic | ||||||
2 | services, the services may be provided under the Consent by | ||||||
3 | Minors to Medical Procedures Act, the Health Care Surrogate | ||||||

10 | place it in the medical record of the sexual assault survivor. | ||||||
11 | The hospital shall provide a copy of the voucher to the sexual | ||||||
12 | assault survivor after discharge upon request. | ||||||
13 | (c) Nothing in this Section creates a physician-patient | ||||||
14 | relationship that extends beyond discharge from the hospital or | ||||||
15 | approved pediatric health care facility.
