    AN ACT concerning education.
 
    Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,
represented in the General Assembly:
 
    Section 5. The Illinois Lottery Law is amended by changing
Section 2 as follows:
 
    (20 ILCS 1605/2)  (from Ch. 120, par. 1152)
    Sec. 2. This Act is enacted to implement and establish
within the State a lottery to be conducted by the State through
the Department. The entire net proceeds of the Lottery are to
be used for the support of the State's Common School Fund,
except as provided in subsection (o) of Section 9.1 and
Sections 21.5, 21.6, 21.7, 21.8, and 21.9. The General Assembly
finds that it is in the public interest for the Department to
conduct the functions of the Lottery with the assistance of a
private manager under a management agreement overseen by the
Department. The Department shall be accountable to the General
Assembly and the people of the State through a comprehensive
system of regulation, audits, reports, and enduring
operational oversight. The Department's ongoing conduct of the
Lottery through a management agreement with a private manager
shall act to promote and ensure the integrity, security,
honesty, and fairness of the Lottery's operation and
administration. It is the intent of the General Assembly that
the Department shall conduct the Lottery with the assistance of
a private manager under a management agreement at all times in
a manner consistent with 18 U.S.C. 1307(a)(1), 1307(b)(1),
1953(b)(4).
    Beginning with Fiscal Year 2018 and every year thereafter,
any moneys transferred from the State Lottery Fund to the
Common School Fund shall be supplemental to, and not in lieu
of, any other money due to be transferred to the Common School
Fund by law or appropriation.
