 1                    AMENDMENT TO SENATE BILL 1901

 2        AMENDMENT NO.     .  Amend Senate Bill 1901 by  replacing
 3    everything after the enacting clause with the following:

 4        "Section  5.  The Executive Reorganization Implementation
 5    Act is amended by adding Section 5.5 as follows:

 6        (15 ILCS 15/5.5 new)
 7        Sec. 5.5. Executive order provisions superseded.
 8        (a)  Executive Order No. 2003-9,  in  subdivision  II(E),
 9    provides  in  part:    "All  such  personnel  shall initially
10    constitute probationary employees under the  Personnel  Code.
11    The Department of Central Management Services shall establish
12    a  procedure  for qualification and retention of personnel in
13    accordance with the Personnel Code.".  This  language,  which
14    violates  Section  4  of  this Act and contravenes applicable
15    provisions of the Personnel Code, is hereby superseded and of
16    no force or effect.  The status and rights of employees under
17    the Personnel Code who are transferred by Executive Order No.
18    2003-9 shall not be affected by the reorganization under that
19    Order.
20        (b)  Executive  Order  No.  2003-10,  subdivision   I(C),
21    provides:      "The   statutory   powers,   duties,   rights,
22    responsibilities  and liabilities regarding internal auditing
 
                            -2-      LRB093 08677 RCE 17251 a
 1    by agencies, offices, divisions, departments, bureaus, boards
 2    and commissions directly responsible to the  Governor  derive
 3    from,  among others, the Fiscal Control and Internal Auditing
 4    Act, 30 ILCS 10/1001 et seq., and the Illinois State Auditing
 5    Act, 30 ILCS 5/1-1 et seq.".   Executive  Order  No.  2003-10
 6    addresses  only  internal  auditing  functions  and  does not
 7    address external auditing functions  or  the  powers  of  the
 8    Auditor  General.    The  reference  to  the  Illinois  State
 9    Auditing  Act  is  therefore incorrect, and that reference is
10    hereby superseded and of no force or effect.
11        (c)  Executive  Order  No.  2003-10,  subdivision   I(D),
12    provides:    "Staff  legal functions across agencies shall be
13    transferred from individual agencies  to  the  Department  of
14    Central  Management  Services.   Legal  functions specific to
15    each particular agency may remain at  that  agency.".    This
16    transfer  of legal functions was intended to be and is hereby
17    limited to  legal  technical  advisor  functions  related  to
18    procurement  and personnel issues across agencies.  All other
19    legal functions at an  agency,  including  those  related  to
20    issues   particular   to  the  agency,  and  legal  functions
21    performed by assistant attorneys general under the  direction
22    and  control  of  the  Attorney General, shall remain at that
23    agency.  To the extent that the language of subdivision  I(D)
24    of  Executive  Order No. 2003-10 may be construed to conflict
25    with this subsection (c), that language  in  Executive  Order
26    2003-10 is hereby superseded.
27        If  any  legal  personnel (or their associated records or
28    property)  have  been  transferred  from  an  agency  to  the
29    Department of Central Management Services under the  apparent
30    direction  of  Executive  Order  2003-10  but contrary to the
31    provisions of this subsection (c), those legal personnel (and
32    their associated records and property) shall  be  immediately
33    transferred  back  to the original agency from the Department
34    of Central Management Services.
 
                            -3-      LRB093 08677 RCE 17251 a
 1        (d)  Executive Order No. 2003-11, in  subdivisions  II(B)
 2    and  II(D),  provides  in  part:    "All such personnel shall
 3    initially  constitute  probationary   employees   under   the
 4    Personnel   Code.    The  Department  of  Central  Management
 5    Services shall establish a procedure  for  qualification  and
 6    retention  of  personnel  in  accordance  with  the Personnel
 7    Code.".  This language, which violates Section 4 of this  Act
 8    and  contravenes applicable provisions of the Personnel Code,
 9    is hereby superseded and of no force or effect.   The  status
10    and  rights  of  employees  under  the Personnel Code who are
11    transferred by Executive  Order  No.  2003-11  shall  not  be
12    affected by the reorganization under that Order.
13        (e)  Executive  Order  No. 2003-12, in subdivision II(B),
14    provides in  part:    "All  such  personnel  shall  initially
15    constitute  probationary  employees under the Personnel Code.
16    The Department of Central Management Services shall establish
17    a procedure for qualification and retention of  personnel  in
18    accordance  with  the Personnel Code.".  This language, which
19    violates Section 4 of this  Act  and  contravenes  applicable
20    provisions of the Personnel Code, is hereby superseded and of
21    no force or effect.  The status and rights of employees under
22    the Personnel Code who are transferred by Executive Order No.
23    2003-12  shall  not  be  affected by the reorganization under
24    that Order.

25        Section 99. Effective date.  This Act takes  effect  upon
26    becoming law.".
