1     AN ACT concerning professional regulation.
 
2     Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,
3 represented in the General Assembly:
 
4     Section 5. The Auction License Act is amended by changing
5 Section 5-5 as follows:
 
6     (225 ILCS 407/5-5)
7     (Section scheduled to be repealed on January 1, 2010)
8     Sec. 5-5. Legislative intent. The General Assembly finds
9 that Illinois does not have the ability, without legislation,
10 to enter into reciprocal agreements with other states to allow
11 residents of the State of Illinois to practice auctioneering in
12 other states. This body further finds that, without
13 legislation, Illinois does not have the ability to evaluate the
14 competency of persons engaged in the auction business or to
15 regulate this business for the protection of the public.
16 Therefore, it is the purpose of this Act to license and
17 regulate auctioneers.
