| ||||||
29 | (20 ILCS 1605/21.5 new)
| ||||||
30 | Sec. 21.5. Ticket For The Cure. |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | (a) The Department shall offer a special instant | ||||||
2 | scratch-off game with the title of "Ticket For The Cure". The | ||||||
3 | game shall commence on January 1, 2006 or as soon thereafter, | ||||||
4 | in the discretion of the Director, as is reasonably practical, | ||||||
5 | and shall be discontinued on December 31, 2011. The operation | ||||||
6 | of the game shall be governed by this Act and any rules adopted | ||||||
7 | by the Department. The Department must consult with the Ticket | ||||||
8 | For The Cure Board, which is established under Section 2310-347 | ||||||
9 | of the Department of Public Health Powers and Duties Law of the
| ||||||
10 | Civil Administrative Code of Illinois, regarding the design and | ||||||
11 | promotion of the game. If any provision of this Section is | ||||||
12 | inconsistent with any other provision of this Act, then this | ||||||
13 | Section governs. | ||||||
14 | (b) The Ticket For The Cure Fund is created as a special | ||||||
15 | fund in the State treasury. The net revenue from the Ticket For | ||||||
16 | The Cure special instant scratch-off game shall be deposited | ||||||
17 | into the Fund for appropriation by the General Assembly solely | ||||||
18 | to the Department of Public Health for the purpose of making | ||||||
19 | grants to public or private entities in Illinois for the | ||||||
20 | purpose of funding research concerning breast cancer and for | ||||||
21 | funding services for breast cancer victims. The Department | ||||||
22 | must, before grants are awarded, provide copies of all grant | ||||||
23 | applications to the Ticket For The Cure Board, receive and | ||||||
24 | review the Board's recommendations and comments, and consult | ||||||
25 | with the Board regarding the grants. For purposes of this | ||||||
26 | Section, the term "research" includes, without limitation, | ||||||
27 | expenditures to develop and advance the understanding, | ||||||
28 | techniques, and modalities effective in the detection, | ||||||
29 | prevention, screening, and treatment of breast cancer and may | ||||||
30 | include clinical trials. The grant funds may not be used for | ||||||
31 | institutional, organizational, or community-based overhead | ||||||
32 | costs, indirect costs, or levies. | ||||||
33 | Moneys received for the purposes of this Section, | ||||||
34 | including, without limitation, net revenue from the special | ||||||
35 | instant scratch-off game and gifts, grants, and awards from any | ||||||
36 | public or private entity, must be deposited into the Fund. Any |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | interest earned on moneys in the Fund must be deposited into | ||||||
2 | the Fund. | ||||||
3 | For purposes of this subsection, "net revenue" means the | ||||||
4 | total amount for which tickets have been sold less the sum of | ||||||
5 | the amount paid out in prizes and the actual administrative | ||||||
6 | expenses of the Department solely related to the Ticket For The | ||||||
7 | Cure game. | ||||||
8 | (c) During the time that tickets are sold for the Ticket | ||||||
9 | For The Cure game, the Department shall not unreasonably | ||||||
10 | diminish the efforts devoted to marketing any other instant | ||||||
11 | scratch-off lottery game. | ||||||
12 | (d) The Department may adopt any rules necessary to | ||||||
13 | implement and administer the provisions of this Section.
| ||||||
14 | Section 10. The Department of Public Health Powers and | ||||||
15 | Duties Law of the
Civil Administrative Code of Illinois is | ||||||
16 | amended by adding Section 2310-347 as follows: | ||||||
17 | (20 ILCS 2310/2310-347 new)
| ||||||
18 | Sec. 2310-347. The Ticket For The Cure Board. | ||||||

26 | Governor with the advice and consent of the Senate, one of whom | ||||||
27 | shall be designated as chair of the Board at the time of | ||||||
28 | appointment. | ||||||
29 | If a vacancy occurs in the Board membership, the vacancy | ||||||
30 | shall be filled in the same manner as the initial appointment. | ||||||
31 | (b) Board members shall serve without compensation but may | ||||||
32 | be reimbursed for their reasonable travel expenses from funds | ||||||
33 | available for that purpose. The Department shall provide staff | ||||||
34 | and administrative support services to the Board. |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | (c) The Board must: | ||||||
2 | (i) consult with the Department of Revenue in designing | ||||||
3 | and promoting the Ticket For The Cure special instant | ||||||
4 | scratch-off lottery game; and | ||||||

9 | Illinois for the purpose of funding research concerning | ||||||
10 | breast cancer and for funding services for breast cancer | ||||||
11 | victims in accordance with Section 21.5 of the Illinois | ||||||
12 | Lottery Law. | ||||||
13 | (d) The Board is discontinued on June 30, 2012.
| ||||||
14 | |||||||
15 | Section 15. The State Finance Act is amended by changing | ||||||
16 | Section 8h and by adding Section
5.640 as follows:
| ||||||
17 | (30 ILCS 105/5.640 new)
| ||||||
18 | Sec. 5.640. The Ticket For The Cure Fund.
| ||||||
19 | (30 ILCS 105/8h)
| ||||||
20 | Sec. 8h. Transfers to General Revenue Fund. | ||||||
21 | (a) Except as provided in subsection (b), notwithstanding | ||||||
22 | any other
State law to the contrary, the Governor
may, through | ||||||
23 | June 30, 2007, from time to time direct the State Treasurer and | ||||||
24 | Comptroller to transfer
a specified sum from any fund held by | ||||||
25 | the State Treasurer to the General
Revenue Fund in order to | ||||||
26 | help defray the State's operating costs for the
fiscal year. | ||||||
27 | The total transfer under this Section from any fund in any
| ||||||
28 | fiscal year shall not exceed the lesser of (i) 8% of the | ||||||
29 | revenues to be deposited
into the fund during that fiscal year | ||||||
30 | or (ii) an amount that leaves a remaining fund balance of 25% | ||||||
31 | of the July 1 fund balance of that fiscal year. In fiscal year | ||||||
32 | 2005 only, prior to calculating the July 1, 2004 final | ||||||
33 | balances, the Governor may calculate and direct the State |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | Treasurer with the Comptroller to transfer additional amounts | ||||||
2 | determined by applying the formula authorized in Public Act | ||||||
3 | 93-839 to the funds balances on July 1, 2003.
No transfer may | ||||||
4 | be made from a fund under this Section that would have the
| ||||||
5 | effect of reducing the available balance in the fund to an | ||||||
6 | amount less than
the amount remaining unexpended and unreserved | ||||||
7 | from the total appropriation
from that fund estimated to be | ||||||
8 | expended for that fiscal year. This Section does not apply to | ||||||
9 | any
funds that are restricted by federal law to a specific use, | ||||||
10 | to any funds in
the Motor Fuel Tax Fund, the Hospital Provider | ||||||
11 | Fund, the Medicaid Provider Relief Fund, or the Reviewing Court | ||||||
12 | Alternative Dispute Resolution Fund, or to any
funds to which | ||||||
13 | subsection (f) of Section 20-40 of the Nursing and Advanced | ||||||
14 | Practice Nursing Act applies. Notwithstanding any
other | ||||||
15 | provision of this Section, for fiscal year 2004,
the total | ||||||
16 | transfer under this Section from the Road Fund or the State
| ||||||
17 | Construction Account Fund shall not exceed the lesser of (i) 5% | ||||||
18 | of the revenues to be deposited
into the fund during that | ||||||
19 | fiscal year or (ii) 25% of the beginning balance in the fund.
| ||||||
20 | For fiscal year 2005 through fiscal year 2007, no amounts may | ||||||
21 | be transferred under this Section from the Road Fund, the State | ||||||
22 | Construction Account Fund, the Criminal Justice Information | ||||||
23 | Systems Trust Fund, the Wireless Service Emergency Fund, or the | ||||||
24 | Mandatory Arbitration Fund.
| ||||||
25 | In determining the available balance in a fund, the | ||||||
26 | Governor
may include receipts, transfers into the fund, and | ||||||
27 | other
resources anticipated to be available in the fund in that | ||||||
28 | fiscal year.
| ||||||
29 | The State Treasurer and Comptroller shall transfer the | ||||||
30 | amounts designated
under this Section as soon as may be | ||||||
31 | practicable after receiving the direction
to transfer from the | ||||||
32 | Governor.
| ||||||
33 | (b) This Section does not apply to the Ticket For The Cure | ||||||
34 | Fund or to any fund established under the Community Senior | ||||||
35 | Services and Resources Act.
