1 | AMENDMENT TO HOUSE BILL 5950
| ||||||
2 | AMENDMENT NO. ______. Amend House Bill 5950 on page 2, | ||||||
3 | immediately below line 8, by inserting the following: | ||||||
4 | "Notwithstanding any other rulemaking authority that may | ||||||
5 | exist, neither the Governor nor any agency or agency head under | ||||||
6 | the jurisdiction of the Governor has any authority to make or | ||||||
7 | promulgate rules to implement or enforce the provisions of this | ||||||
8 | Act. If, however, the Governor believes that rules are | ||||||
9 | necessary to implement or enforce the provisions of this Act, | ||||||
10 | the Governor may suggest rules to the General Assembly by | ||||||
11 | filing them with the Clerk of the House and the Secretary of | ||||||
12 | the Senate and by requesting that the General Assembly | ||||||
13 | authorize such rulemaking by law, enact those suggested rules | ||||||
14 | into law, or take any other appropriate action in the General | ||||||
15 | Assembly's discretion. Nothing contained in this Act shall be | ||||||
16 | interpreted to grant rulemaking authority under any other | ||||||
17 | Illinois statute where such authority is not otherwise | ||||||
18 | explicitly given. For the purposes of this Act, "rules" is |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | given the meaning contained in Section 1-70 of the Illinois | ||||||
2 | Administrative Procedure Act, and "agency" and "agency head" | ||||||
3 | are given the meanings contained in Sections 1-20 and 1-25 of | ||||||
4 | the Illinois Administrative Procedure Act to the extent that | ||||||
5 | such definitions apply to agencies or agency heads under the | ||||||
6 | jurisdiction of the Governor.".
