Section 99. Effective date. This Act takes effect on July 1, 2001.". There being no further amendments, the foregoing Amendment No. 1 was adopted and the bill, as amended, was advanced to the order of Third Reading. SENATE BILL 216. Having been printed, was taken up and read by title a second time. The following amendment was offered in the Committee on Human Services, adopted and printed: AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO SENATE BILL 216 AMENDMENT NO. 1. Amend Senate Bill 216 as follows: by replacing everything after the enacting clause with the following: "Section 1. Short title. This Act may be cited as the Abandoned Newborn Infant Protection Act. Section 5. Public policy. Illinois recognizes that newborn infants have been abandoned to the environment or to other circumstances that may be unsafe to the newborn infant. These circumstances have caused injury and death to newborn infants and give rise to potential civil or criminal liability to parents who may be under severe emotional distress. This Act is intended to provide a mechanism for a newborn infant to be relinquished to a safe environment and for the parents of the infant to remain anonymous if they choose and to avoid civil or criminal liability for the act of relinquishing the infant. It is recognized that establishing an adoption plan is preferable to relinquishing a child using the procedures outlined in this Act, but to reduce the chance of injury to a newborn infant, this Act provides a safer alternative. A public information campaign on this delicate issue shall be implemented to encourage parents considering abandonment of their newborn child to relinquish the child under the procedures outlined in this Act, to choose a traditional adoption plan, or to parent a child themselves rather than place the newborn infant in harm's way. Section 10. Definitions. In this Act: "Abandon" has the same meaning as in the Abused and Neglected Child Reporting Act.
33 [May 8, 2001] "Abused child" has the same meaning as in the Abused and Neglected Child Reporting Act. "Child-placing agency" means a licensed public or private agency that receives a child for the purpose of placing or arranging for the placement of the child in a foster family home or other facility for child care, apart from the custody of the child's parents. "Department" or "DCFS" means the Illinois Department of Children and Family Services. "Emergency medical facility" means a freestanding emergency center or trauma center, as defined in the Emergency Medical Services (EMS) Systems Act. "Emergency medical professional" includes licensed physicians, and any emergency medical technician-basic, emergency medical technician-intermediate, emergency medical technician-paramedic, trauma nurse specialist, and pre-hospital RN, as defined in the Emergency Medical Services (EMS) Systems Act. "Fire station" means a fire station within the State that is staffed with at least one full-time emergency medical professional. "Hospital" has the same meaning as in the Hospital Licensing Act. "Legal custody" means the relationship created by a court order in the best interest of a newborn infant that imposes on the infant's custodian the responsibility of physical possession of the infant, the duty to protect, train, and discipline the infant, and the duty to provide the infant with food, shelter, education, and medical care, except as these are limited by parental rights and responsibilities. "Neglected child" has the same meaning as in the Abused and Neglected Child Reporting Act. "Newborn infant" means a child who a licensed physician reasonably believes is 72 hours old or less at the time the child is initially relinquished to a hospital, fire station, or emergency medical facility, and who is not an abused or a neglected child. "Relinquish" means to bring a newborn infant, who a licensed physician reasonably believes is 72 hours old or less, to a hospital, fire station, or emergency medical facility and to leave the infant with personnel of the facility, if the person leaving the infant does not express an intent to return for the infant or states that he or she will not return for the infant. In the case of a mother who gives birth to an infant in a hospital, the mother's act of leaving that newborn infant at the hospital (i) without expressing an intent to return for the infant or (ii) stating that she will not return for the infant is not a "relinquishment" under this Act. "Temporary protective custody" means the temporary placement of a newborn infant within a hospital or other medical facility out of the custody of the infant's parent. Section 15. Presumptions. (a) There is a presumption that by relinquishing a newborn infant in accordance with this Act, the infant's parent consents to the termination of his or her parental rights with respect to the infant. (b) There is a presumption that a person relinquishing a newborn infant in accordance with this Act: (1) is the newborn infant's biological parent; and (2) either without expressing an intent to return for the infant or expressing an intent not to return for the infant, did intend to relinquish the infant to the hospital, fire station, or emergency medical facility to treat, care for, and provide for the infant in accordance with this Act. (c) A parent of a relinquished newborn infant may rebut the presumption set forth in either subsection (a) or subsection (b) pursuant to Section 55, at any time before the termination of the parent's parental rights. Section 20. Procedures with respect to relinquished newborn infants. (a) Hospitals. Every hospital must accept and provide all necessary emergency services and care to a relinquished newborn infant, in accordance with this Act. The hospital shall examine a relinquished newborn infant and perform tests that, based on reasonable medical
[May 8, 2001] 34 judgment, are appropriate in evaluating whether the relinquished newborn infant was abused or neglected. The act of relinquishing a newborn infant serves as implied consent for the hospital and its medical personnel and physicians on staff to treat and provide care for the infant. The hospital shall be deemed to have temporary protective custody of a relinquished newborn infant until the infant is discharged to the custody of a child-placing agency or the Department. (b) Fire stations and emergency medical facilities. Every fire station and emergency medical facility must accept and provide all necessary emergency services and care to a relinquished newborn infant, in accordance with this Act. The act of relinquishing a newborn infant serves as implied consent for the fire station or emergency medical facility and its emergency medical professionals to treat and provide care for the infant, to the extent that those emergency medical professionals are trained to provide those services. After the relinquishment of a newborn infant to a fire station or emergency medical facility, the fire station or emergency medical facility's personnel must arrange for the transportation of the infant to the nearest hospital as soon as transportation can be arranged. If the parent of a newborn infant returns to reclaim the child within 72 hours after relinquishing the child to a fire station or emergency medical facility, the fire station or emergency medical facility must inform the parent of the name and location of the hospital to which the infant was transported. Section 25. Immunity for relinquishing person. (a) The act of relinquishing a newborn infant to a hospital, fire station, or emergency medical facility in accordance with this Act does not, by itself, constitute a basis for a finding of abuse, neglect, or abandonment of the infant pursuant to the laws of this State nor does it, by itself, constitute a violation of Section 12-21.5 or 12-21.6 of the Criminal Code of 1961. (b) If there is suspected child abuse or neglect that is not based solely on the newborn infant's relinquishment to a hospital, fire station, or emergency medical facility, the personnel of the hospital, fire station, or emergency medical facility who are mandated reporters under the Abused and Neglected Child Reporting Act must report the abuse or neglect pursuant to that Act. (c) Neither a child protective investigation nor a criminal investigation may be initiated solely because a newborn infant is relinquished pursuant to this Act. Section 27. Immunity of facility and personnel. A hospital, fire station, or emergency medical facility, and any personnel of a hospital, fire station, or emergency medical facility, are immune from criminal or civil liability for acting in good faith in accordance with this Act. Nothing in this Act limits liability for negligence for care and medical treatment. Section 30. Anonymity of relinquishing person. If there is no evidence of abuse or neglect of a relinquished newborn infant, the relinquishing person has the right to remain anonymous and to leave the hospital, fire station, or emergency medical facility at any time and not be pursued or followed. Before the relinquishing person leaves the hospital, fire station, or emergency medical facility, the hospital, fire station, or emergency medical facility personnel shall i) verbally inform the relinquishing person that by relinquishing the child anonymously, he or she will have to petition the court if he or she desires to prevent the termination of parental rights and regain custody of the child and ii) shall offer the relinquishing person the information packet described in Section 35 of this Act. However, nothing in this Act shall be construed as precluding the relinquishing person from providing his or her identity or completing the application forms for the Illinois Adoption Registry and Medical Information Exchange and requesting that the hospital, fire station, or emergency medical facility forward those forms to the Illinois Adoption Registry and Medical information Exchange.
35 [May 8, 2001] Section 35. Information for relinquishing person. A hospital, fire station, or emergency medical facility that receives a newborn infant relinquished in accordance with this Act must offer an information packet to the relinquishing person and, if possible, must clearly inform the relinquishing person that his or her acceptance of the information is completely voluntary, that registration with the Illinois Adoption Registry and Medical Information Exchange is voluntary, that the person will remain anonymous if he or she completes a Denial of Information Exchange, and that the person has the option to provide medical information only and still remain anonymous. The information packet must include all of the following: (1) All Illinois Adoption Registry and Medical Information Exchange application forms, including the Medical Information Exchange Questionnaire and the web site address and toll free phone number of the Registry. (2) Written notice of the following: (A) No sooner than 60 days following the date of the initial relinquishment of the infant to a hospital, fire station, or emergency medical facility, the child-placing agency or the Department will commence proceedings for the termination of parental rights and placement of the infant for adoption. (B) Failure of a parent of the infant to contact the Department and petition for the return of custody of the infant before termination of parental rights bars any future action asserting legal rights with respect to the infant. (3) A resource list of providers of counseling services including grief counseling, pregnancy counseling, and counseling regarding adoption and other available options for placement of the infant. Upon request, the Department of Public Health shall provide the application forms for the Illinois Adoption Registry and Medical Information Exchange to hospitals, fire stations, and emergency medical facilities. Section 40. Reporting requirements. (a) Within 12 hours after accepting a newborn infant from a relinquishing person or from a fire station or emergency medical facility in accordance with this Act, a hospital must report to the Department's State Central Registry for the purpose of transferring physical custody of the infant from the hospital to either a child-placing agency or the Department. (b) Within 24 hours after receiving a report under subsection (a), the Department must request assistance from law enforcement officials to investigate the matter using the National Crime Information Center to ensure that the relinquished newborn infant is not a missing child. (c) Once a hospital has made a report to the Department under subsection (a), the Department must arrange for a licensed child-placing agency to accept physical custody of the relinquished newborn infant. (d) If a relinquished child is not a newborn infant as defined in this Act, the hospital and the Department must proceed as if the child is an abused or neglected child. Section 45. Medical assistance. Notwithstanding any other provision of law, a newborn infant relinquished in accordance with this Act shall be deemed eligible for medical assistance under the Illinois Public Aid Code, and a hospital providing medical services to such an infant shall be reimbursed for those services in accordance with the payment methodologies authorized under that Code. In addition, for any day that a hospital has custody of a newborn infant relinquished in accordance with this Act and the infant does not require medically necessary care, the hospital shall be reimbursed by the Illinois Department of Public Aid at the general acute care per diem rate, in accordance with 89 Ill. Adm. Code 148.270(c). Section 50. Child-placing agency procedures. (a) The Department's State Central Registry must maintain a list of licensed child-placing agencies willing to take legal custody of
[May 8, 2001] 36 newborn infants relinquished in accordance with this Act. The child-placing agencies on the list must be contacted by the Department on a rotating basis upon notice from a hospital that a newborn infant has been relinquished in accordance with this Act. (b) Upon notice from the Department that a newborn infant has been relinquished in accordance with this Act, a child-placing agency must accept the newborn infant if the agency has the accommodations to do so. The child-placing agency must seek an order for legal custody of the infant upon its acceptance of the infant. (c) Within 3 business days after assuming physical custody of the infant, the child-placing agency shall file a petition in the division of the circuit court in which petitions for adoption would normally be heard. The petition shall allege that the newborn infant has been relinquished in accordance with this Act and shall state that the child-placing agency intends to place the infant in an adoptive home. (d) If no licensed child-placing agency is able to accept the relinquished newborn infant, then the Department must assume responsibility for the infant as soon as practicable. (e) A custody order issued under subsection (b) shall remain in effect until a final adoption order based on the relinquished newborn infant's best interests is issued in accordance with this Act and the Adoption Act. (f) When possible, the child-placing agency must place a relinquished newborn infant in a prospective adoptive home. (g) The Department or child-placing agency must initiate proceedings to (i) terminate the parental rights of the relinquished newborn infant's known or unknown parents, (ii) appoint a guardian for the infant, and (iii) obtain consent to the infant's adoption in accordance with this Act no sooner than 60 days following the date of the initial relinquishment of the infant to the hospital, fire station, or emergency medical facility. (h) Before filing a petition for termination of parental rights, the Department or child-placing agency must do the following: (1) Search its Putative Father Registry for the purpose of determining the identity and location of the putative father of the relinquished newborn infant who is, or is expected to be, the subject of an adoption proceeding, in order to provide notice of the proceeding to the putative father. At least one search of the Registry must be conducted, at least 30 days after the relinquished newborn infant's estimated date of birth; earlier searches may be conducted, however. Notice to any potential putative father discovered in a search of the Registry according to the estimated age of the relinquished newborn infant must be in accordance with Section 12a of the Adoption Act. (2) Verify with law enforcement officials, using the National Crime Information Center, that the relinquished newborn infant is not a missing child. Section 55. Petition for return of custody. (a) A parent of a newborn infant relinquished in accordance with this Act may petition for the return of custody of the infant before the termination of parental rights with respect to the infant. (b) A parent of a newborn infant relinquished in accordance with this Act may petition for the return of custody of the infant by contacting the Department for the purpose of obtaining the name of the child-placing agency and then filing a petition for return of custody in the circuit court in which the proceeding for the termination of parental rights is pending. (c) If a petition for the termination of parental rights has not been filed by the Department or the child-placing agency, the parent of the relinquished newborn infant must contact the Department, which must notify the parent of the appropriate court in which the petition for return of custody must be filed. (d) The circuit court may hold the proceeding for the termination of parental rights in abeyance for a period not to exceed 60 days from the date that the petition for return of custody was filed without a showing of good cause. During that period:
37 [May 8, 2001] (1) The court shall order genetic testing to establish maternity or paternity, or both. (2) The Department shall conduct a child protective investigation and home study to develop recommendations to the court. (3) When indicated as a result of the Department's investigation and home study, further proceedings under the Juvenile Court Act of 1987 as the court determines appropriate, may be conducted. However, relinquishment of a newborn infant in accordance with this Act does not render the infant abused, neglected, or abandoned solely because the newborn infant was relinquished to a hospital, fire station, or emergency medical facility in accordance with this Act. (e) Failure to file a petition for the return of custody of a relinquished newborn infant before the termination of parental rights bars any future action asserting legal rights with respect to the infant unless the parent's act of relinquishment that led to the termination of parental rights involved fraud perpetrated against and not stemming from or involving the parent. No action to void or revoke the termination of parental rights of a parent of a newborn infant relinquished in accordance with this Act, including an action based on fraud, may be commenced after 12 months after the date that the newborn infant was initially relinquished to a hospital, fire station, or emergency medical facility. Section 60. Department's duties. The Department must implement a public information program to promote safe placement alternatives for newborn infants. The public information program must inform the public of the following: (1) The relinquishment alternative provided for in this Act, which results in the adoption of a newborn infant under 72 hours of age and which provides for the parent's anonymity, if the parent so chooses. (2) The alternative of adoption through a public or private agency, in which the parent's identity may or may not be known to the agency, but is kept anonymous from the adoptive parents, if the birth parent so desires, and which allows the parent to be actively involved in the child's adoption plan. The public information program may include, but need not be limited to, the following elements: (i) Educational and informational materials in print, audio, video, electronic or other media. (ii) Establishment of a web site. (iii) Public service announcements and advertisements. (iv) Establishment of toll-free telephone hotlines to provide information. Section 65. Evaluation. (a) The Department shall collect and analyze information regarding the relinquishment of newborn infants and placement of children under this Act. Fire stations, emergency medical facilities, and medical professionals accepting and providing services to a newborn infant under this Act shall report to the Department data necessary for the Department to evaluate and determine the effect of this Act in the prevention of injury or death of newborn infants. Child-placing agencies shall report to the Department data necessary to evaluate and determine the effectiveness of these agencies in providing child protective and child welfare services to newborn infants relinquished under this Act. (b) The information collected shall include, but need not be limited to: the number of newborn infants relinquished; the services provided to relinquished newborn infants; the outcome of care for the relinquished newborn infants; the number and disposition of cases of relinquished newborn infants subject to placement; the number of children accepted and served by child-placing agencies; and the services provided by child-placing agencies and the disposition of the cases of the children placed under this Act. (c) The Department shall submit a report by January 1, 2002, and
[May 8, 2001] 38 on January 1 of each year thereafter, to the Governor and General Assembly regarding the prevention of injury or death of newborn infants and the effect of placements of children under this Act. The report shall include, but need not be limited to, a summary of collected data, an analysis of the data and conclusions regarding the Act's effectiveness, a determination whether the purposes of the Act are being achieved, and recommendations for changes that may be considered necessary to improve the administration and enforcement of this Act. Section 70. Construction of Act. Nothing in this Act shall be construed to preclude the courts of this State from exercising their discretion to protect the health and safety of children in individual cases. The best interests and welfare of a child shall be a paramount consideration in the construction and interpretation of this Act. It is in the child's best interests that this Act be construed and interpreted so as not to result in extending time limits beyond those set forth in this Act. Section 75. Repeal. This Act is repealed on July 1, 2007. Section 90. The Illinois Public Aid Code is amended by changing Section 4-1.2 as follows: (305 ILCS 5/4-1.2) (from Ch. 23, par. 4-1.2) Sec. 4-1.2.

Instead of imposing the punishment hereinbefore provided, the court may release the defendant from custody on probation for one year upon his or her entering into recognizance with or without surety in such sum as the court directs. The conditions of the recognizance shall be such that if the defendant appears personally in court whenever ordered to do so within the year and provides and cares for such neglected and dependent child in such manner as to prevent a continuance or repetition of such state of dependency and neglect or as otherwise may be directed by the court then the recognizance shall be void, otherwise it shall be of full force and effect. If the court is satisfied by information and due proof under oath that at any time during the year the defendant has violated the terms of such order it may forthwith revoke the order and sentence him or her under the original conviction. Unless so sentenced, the defendant shall at the end of the year be discharged. In case of forfeiture on the recognizance the sum recovered thereon may in the discretion of the court be paid in whole or in part to someone designated by the court for the support of such dependent and neglected child.

(g) Failure to protect the child from conditions within his environment injurious to the child's welfare.

(i) Depravity. Conviction of any one of the following crimes shall create a presumption that a parent is depraved which can be overcome only by clear and convincing evidence: (1) first degree murder in violation of paragraph 1 or 2 of subsection (a) of Section 9-1 of the Criminal Code of 1961 or conviction of second degree murder in violation of subsection (a) of Section 9-2 of the Criminal Code of 1961 of a parent of the child to be adopted; (2) first degree murder or second degree murder of any child in violation of the Criminal Code of 1961; (3) attempt or conspiracy to commit first degree murder or second degree murder of any child in violation of the Criminal Code of 1961; (4) solicitation to commit murder of any child, solicitation to commit murder of any child for hire, or solicitation to commit second degree murder of any child in violation of the Criminal Code of 1961; or (5) aggravated criminal sexual assault in violation of Section 12-14(b)(1) of the Criminal Code of 1961. There is a rebuttable presumption that a parent is depraved if the parent has been criminally convicted of at least 3 felonies under the laws of this State or any other state, or under federal law, or the criminal laws of any United States territory; and at least one of these convictions took place within 5 years of the filing of the petition or motion seeking termination of parental rights. There is a rebuttable presumption that a parent is depraved if that parent has been criminally convicted of either first or second degree murder of any person as defined in the Criminal Code of 1961 within 10 years of the filing date of the petition or motion to terminate parental rights. (j) Open and notorious adultery or fornication. (j-1) (Blank).

45 [May 8, 2001] this subsection with respect to any child to which that parent gives birth where there is a confirmed test result that at birth the child's blood, urine, or meconium contained any amount of a controlled substance as defined in subsection (f) of Section 102 of the Illinois Controlled Substances Act or metabolites of such substances, the presence of which in the newborn infant was not the result of medical treatment administered to the mother or the newborn infant; and the biological mother of this child is the biological mother of at least one other child who was adjudicated a neglected minor under subsection (c) of Section 2-3 of the Juvenile Court Act of 1987. (l) Failure to demonstrate a reasonable degree of interest, concern or responsibility as to the welfare of a new born child during the first 30 days after its birth. (m) Failure by a parent (i) to make reasonable efforts to correct the conditions that were the basis for the removal of the child from the parent, or (ii) to make reasonable progress toward the return of the child to the parent within 9 months after an adjudication of neglected or abused minor under Section 2-3 of the Juvenile Court Act of 1987 or dependent minor under Section 2-4 of that Act, or (iii) to make reasonable progress toward the return of the child to the parent during any 9-month period after the end of the initial 9-month period following the adjudication of neglected or abused minor under Section 2-3 of the Juvenile Court Act of 1987 or dependent minor under Section 2-4 of that Act. If a service plan has been established as required under Section 8.2 of the Abused and Neglected Child Reporting Act to correct the conditions that were the basis for the removal of the child from the parent and if those services were available, then, for purposes of this Act, "failure to make reasonable progress toward the return of the child to the parent" includes (I) the parent's failure to substantially fulfill his or her obligations under the service plan and correct the conditions that brought the child into care within 9 months after the adjudication under Section 2-3 or 2-4 of the Juvenile Court Act of 1987 and (II) the parent's failure to substantially fulfill his or her obligations under the service plan and correct the conditions that brought the child into care during any 9-month period after the end of the initial 9-month period following the adjudication under Section 2-3 or 2-4 of the Juvenile Court Act of 1987. (m-1) Pursuant to the Juvenile Court Act of 1987, a child has been in foster care for 15 months out of any 22 month period which begins on or after the effective date of this amendatory Act of 1998 unless the child's parent can prove by a preponderance of the evidence that it is more likely than not that it will be in the best interests of the child to be returned to the parent within 6 months of the date on which a petition for termination of parental rights is filed under the Juvenile Court Act of 1987. The 15 month time limit is tolled during any period for which there is a court finding that the appointed custodian or guardian failed to make reasonable efforts to reunify the child with his or her family, provided that (i) the finding of no reasonable efforts is made within 60 days of the period when reasonable efforts were not made or (ii) the parent filed a motion requesting a finding of no reasonable efforts within 60 days of the period when reasonable efforts were not made. For purposes of this subdivision (m-1), the date of entering foster care is the earlier of: (i) the date of a judicial finding at an adjudicatory hearing that the child is an abused, neglected, or dependent minor; or (ii) 60 days after the date on which the child is removed from his or her parent, guardian, or legal custodian. (n) Evidence of intent to forgo his or her parental rights, whether or not the child is a ward of the court, (1) as manifested by his or her failure for a period of 12 months: (i) to visit the child, (ii) to communicate with the child or agency, although able to do so and not prevented from doing so by an agency or by court
[May 8, 2001] 46 order, or (iii) to maintain contact with or plan for the future of the child, although physically able to do so, or (2) as manifested by the father's failure, where he and the mother of the child were unmarried to each other at the time of the child's birth, (i) to commence legal proceedings to establish his paternity under the Illinois Parentage Act of 1984 or the law of the jurisdiction of the child's birth within 30 days of being informed, pursuant to Section 12a of this Act, that he is the father or the likely father of the child or, after being so informed where the child is not yet born, within 30 days of the child's birth, or (ii) to make a good faith effort to pay a reasonable amount of the expenses related to the birth of the child and to provide a reasonable amount for the financial support of the child, the court to consider in its determination all relevant circumstances, including the financial condition of both parents; provided that the ground for termination provided in this subparagraph (n)(2)(ii) shall only be available where the petition is brought by the mother or the husband of the mother. Contact or communication by a parent with his or her child that does not demonstrate affection and concern does not constitute reasonable contact and planning under subdivision (n). In the absence of evidence to the contrary, the ability to visit, communicate, maintain contact, pay expenses and plan for the future shall be presumed. The subjective intent of the parent, whether expressed or otherwise, unsupported by evidence of the foregoing parental acts manifesting that intent, shall not preclude a determination that the parent has intended to forgo his or her parental rights. In making this determination, the court may consider but shall not require a showing of diligent efforts by an authorized agency to encourage the parent to perform the acts specified in subdivision (n). It shall be an affirmative defense to any allegation under paragraph (2) of this subsection that the father's failure was due to circumstances beyond his control or to impediments created by the mother or any other person having legal custody. Proof of that fact need only be by a preponderance of the evidence. (o) Repeated or continuous failure by the parents, although physically and financially able, to provide the child with adequate food, clothing, or shelter. (p) Inability to discharge parental responsibilities supported by competent evidence from a psychiatrist, licensed clinical social worker, or clinical psychologist of mental impairment, mental illness or mental retardation as defined in Section 1-116 of the Mental Health and Developmental Disabilities Code, or developmental disability as defined in Section 1-106 of that Code, and there is sufficient justification to believe that the inability to discharge parental responsibilities shall extend beyond a reasonable time period. However, this subdivision (p) shall not be construed so as to permit a licensed clinical social worker to conduct any medical diagnosis to determine mental illness or mental impairment. (q) The parent has been criminally convicted of aggravated battery, heinous battery, or attempted murder of any child. (r) The child is in the temporary custody or guardianship of the Department of Children and Family Services, the parent is incarcerated as a result of criminal conviction at the time the petition or motion for termination of parental rights is filed, prior to incarceration the parent had little or no contact with the child or provided little or no support for the child, and the parent's incarceration will prevent the parent from discharging his or her parental responsibilities for the child for a period in excess of 2 years after the filing of the petition or motion for termination of parental rights. (s) The child is in the temporary custody or guardianship of the Department of Children and Family Services, the parent is incarcerated at the time the petition or motion for termination of
47 [May 8, 2001] parental rights is filed, the parent has been repeatedly incarcerated as a result of criminal convictions, and the parent's repeated incarceration has prevented the parent from discharging his or her parental responsibilities for the child. (t) A finding that at birth the child's blood, urine, or meconium contained any amount of a controlled substance as defined in subsection (f) of Section 102 of the Illinois Controlled Substances Act, or a metabolite of a controlled substance, with the exception of controlled substances or metabolites of such substances, the presence of which in the newborn infant was the result of medical treatment administered to the mother or the newborn infant, and that the biological mother of this child is the biological mother of at least one other child who was adjudicated a neglected minor under subsection (c) of Section 2-3 of the Juvenile Court Act of 1987, after which the biological mother had the opportunity to enroll in and participate in a clinically appropriate substance abuse counseling, treatment, and rehabilitation program.

For the purpose of this Act, a person who has executed a final and irrevocable consent to adoption or a final and irrevocable surrender for purposes of adoption, or whose parental rights have been terminated by a court, is not a parent of the child who was the subject of the consent or surrender, unless the consent is void pursuant to subsection O of Section 10. F. A person is available for adoption when the person is: (a) a child who has been surrendered for adoption to an agency and to whose adoption the agency has thereafter consented; (b) a child to whose adoption a person authorized by law, other than his parents, has consented, or to whose adoption no consent is required pursuant to Section 8 of this Act; (c) a child who is in the custody of persons who intend to adopt him through placement made by his parents; (c-1) a child for whom a parent has signed a specific consent pursuant to subsection O of Section 10;

A child shall not be considered neglected or abused for the sole reason that the child's parent or other person responsible for his or her welfare depends upon spiritual means through prayer alone for the treatment or cure of disease or remedial care as provided under Section 4 of the Abused and Neglected Child Reporting Act. R. "Putative father" means a man who may be a child's father, but who (1) is not married to the child's mother on or before the date that the child was or is to be born and (2) has not established paternity of the child in a court proceeding before the filing of a petition for the adoption of the child.

59 [May 8, 2001] (5) That families will be responsible for quarterly payments of family fees, which will be based on a sliding scale according to income, and that these fees are payable to the central billing office, and that if the family encounters a catastrophic circumstance making it unable to pay the fees, the lead agency may, upon proof of inability to pay, waive the fees. (f) The individualized family service plan must state whether the family has private insurance coverage and, if the family has such coverage, must have attached to it a copy of the family's insurance identification card or otherwise include all of the following information: (1) The name, address, and telephone number of the insurance carrier.

(Source: P.A. 91-538, eff. 8-13-99.) (325 ILCS 20/13) (from Ch. 23, par. 4163) Sec. 13. Funding and Fiscal Responsibility. (a) The lead agency and every other participating State agency may receive and expend funds appropriated by the General Assembly to implement the early intervention services system as required by this Act. (b) The lead agency and each participating State agency shall identify and report on an annual basis to the Council the State agency funds utilized for the provision of early intervention services to eligible infants and toddlers. (c) Funds provided under Section 633 of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (20 United States Code 1433) and State funds designated or appropriated for early intervention services or programs may not be used to satisfy a financial commitment for services which would have been paid for from another public or private source but for the enactment of this Act, except whenever considered necessary to prevent delay in receiving appropriate early intervention services by the eligible infant or toddler or family in a timely manner. Funds provided under Section 633 of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act and State funds designated or appropriated for early intervention services or programs may be used by the lead agency to pay the provider of services (A) pending reimbursement from the appropriate State agency or (B) if (i) the claim for payment is denied in whole or in part by a public or private source, or would be denied under the terms of the public program or plan or private plan, or (ii) use of private insurance for the service has been exempted under Section 13.25. (d) Nothing in this Act shall be construed to permit the State to reduce medical or other assistance available or to alter eligibility under Title V and Title XIX of the Social Security Act relating to the Maternal Child Health Program and Medicaid for eligible infants and toddlers in this State. (e) The lead agency shall create a central billing office to receive and dispense all relevant State and federal resources, as well as local government or independent resources available, for early intervention services. This office shall assure that maximum federal resources are utilized and that providers receive funds with minimal duplications or interagency reporting and with consolidated audit procedures. (f) The lead agency shall, by rule,
[May 8, 2001] 60 Family Service Plans, or the implementation of procedural safeguards and other administrative components of the statewide early intervention system. The system of payments, called family fees, shall be structured on a sliding scale based on family income. The family's coverage or lack of coverage under a public or private insurance plan or policy shall not be a factor in determining the amount of the family fees. Each family's fee obligation shall be established annually, and shall be paid by families to the central billing office in quarterly installments. At the written request of the family, the fee obligation shall be adjusted at any point during the year upon proof of a change in family income. The inability of the parents of an eligible child to pay family fees due to catastrophic or extraordinary circumstances, as established by rule, shall not result in the denial of services to the child or the child's family. The rules adopted under this paragraph shall establish procedures that ensure that families with documented extraordinary expenses or other catastrophic circumstances are given an opportunity to demonstrate that the family fees should be reduced or forgiven. (g) To ensure that early intervention funds are used as the payor of last resort for early intervention services, the lead agency shall determine at the point of early intervention intake, and again at any periodic review of eligibility thereafter or upon a change in family circumstances, whether the family is eligible for or enrolled in any program for which payment is made directly or through public or private insurance for any or all of the early intervention services made available under this Act. The lead agency shall establish procedures to ensure that payments are made either directly from these public and private sources instead of from State or federal early intervention funds, or as reimbursement for payments previously made from State or federal early intervention funds. (Source: P.A. 91-538, eff. 8-13-99.) (325 ILCS 20/13.5 new) Sec. 13.5. Other programs. (a) When an application or a review of eligibility for early intervention services is made, and at any eligibility redetermination thereafter, the family shall be asked if it is currently enrolled in Medicaid, KidCare, or the Title V program administered by the University of Illinois Division of Specialized Care for Children. If the family is enrolled in any of these programs, that information shall be put on the individualized family service plan and entered into the computerized case management system, and shall require that the individualized family services plan of a child who has been found eligible for services through the Division of Specialized Care for Children state that the child is enrolled in that program. For those programs in which the family is not enrolled, a preliminary eligibility screen shall be conducted simultaneously for (i) medical assistance (Medicaid) under Article V of the Illinois Public Aid Code, (ii) children's health insurance program (KidCare) benefits under the Children's Health Insurance Program Act, and (iii) Title V maternal and child health services provided through the Division of Specialized Care for Children of the University of Illinois. A child enrolled in an early intervention program shall automatically be enrolled in any of these other programs for which the child is also eligible. (b) For purposes of determining family fees under subsection (f) of Section 13 and determining eligibility for the other programs and services specified in items (i) through (iii) of subsection (a), the lead agency shall develop and use, within 60 days after the effective date of this amendatory Act of the 92nd General Assembly, with the cooperation of the Department of Public Aid and the Division of Specialized Care for Children of the University of Illinois, a single application form that provides sufficient information for the early intervention regional intake entities or other agencies to establish eligibility for those other programs and shall, in cooperation with the Illinois Department of Public Aid and the Division of Specialized Care for Children, train the regional intake entities on using the screening
61 [May 8, 2001] device. (c) When a child is determined eligible for and enrolled in the early intervention program and has been found to at least meet the threshold income eligibility requirements for Medicaid or KidCare, the regional intake entity shall complete a KidCare/Medicaid application with the family and forward it to the Illinois Department of Public Aid's KidCare Unit for a determination of eligibility. (d) With the cooperation of the Department of Public Aid, the lead agency shall establish procedures that ensure the timely and maximum allowable recovery of payments for all early intervention services and allowable administrative costs under Article V of the Illinois Public Aid Code and the Children's Health Insurance Program Act and shall include those procedures in the interagency agreement required under subsection (e) of Section 5 of this Act. (e) For the purpose of determining eligibility for benefits and making referrals for final eligibility determinations for medical assistance under Article V of the Illinois Public Aid Code, the lead agency and the Department of Public Aid shall treat the regional intake entities as "qualified entities" within the meaning of 42 U.S.C. 1396r-1a. (f) For purposes of making referrals for final determinations of eligibility for KidCare benefits under the Children's Health Insurance Program Act and for medical assistance under Article V of the Illinois Public Aid Code, the lead agency and the Department of Public Aid shall enroll each early intervention regional intake entity as a "KidCare agent" in order for the entity to complete the KidCare application as authorized under Section 22 of the Children's Health Insurance Program Act. (g) For purposes of early intervention services that may be provided under Title V of the Social Security Act, the lead agency, in conjunction with the Division of Specialized Care for Children (DSCC) of the University of Illinois, shall establish procedures whereby the early intervention regional intake entities may determine whether children enrolled in the early intervention program may also be eligible for those services, and shall develop, within 60 days after the effective date of this amendatory Act of the 92nd General Assembly, (i) the inter-agency agreement required under subsection (e) of Section 5 of this Act, establishing that early intervention funds are to be used as the payor of last resort when services required under an individualized family services plan may be provided to an eligible child through the DSCC, and (ii) training guidelines for the regional intake entities and providers that explain eligibility for care through DSCC, and its billing procedures. Within 24 months after the effective date of this amendatory Act of the 92nd General Assembly, to maintain enrollment as a fully credentialed specialist under this Act, an individual must meet the requirements of DSCC for enrollment within his or her discipline, if DSCC accepts the enrollment of such providers within that discipline, and shall bill DSCC for all early intervention services that are payable under that program that are provided to children who are found eligible under that program. The lead agency shall require that an individual applying for or renewing enrollment as providers of services in the early intervention program state whether or not he or she is also enrolled as a DSCC provider. This information shall be noted next to the name of the provider on the computerized roster of Illinois early intervention providers, and regional intake entities shall make every effort to refer families eligible for DSCC services to these providers. (325 ILCS 20/13.10 new) Sec. 13.10. Private health insurance; assignment. No later than 60 days after the effective date of this amendatory Act of the 92nd General Assembly, the lead agency shall determine, at the point of new applications for early intervention services, and for all children enrolled in the early intervention program, at the regional intake offices, whether the child is insured under a private health insurance plan or policy. An application for early intervention services shall serve as a right to assignment of the right of recovery against a
[May 8, 2001] 62 private health insurance plan or policy for any covered early intervention services that are not required to be provided at State expense and that are provided to a child covered under the plan or policy. (325 ILCS 20/13.15 new) Sec. 13.15. Billing of insurance carrier. (a) Subject to the restrictions against private insurance use on the basis of material risk of loss of coverage, as determined under Section 13.25, each enrolled provider who is providing a family with early intervention services shall bill the child's insurance carrier for each unit of early intervention service that is not required to be provided at public expense under Section 13 of this Act and for which coverage may be available. The lead agency may exempt from the requirement of this paragraph any early intervention service that it has deemed not to be covered by insurance plans in Illinois. When the service is not exempted, providers who receive a denial of payment on the basis that the service is not covered under any circumstance under the plan are not required to bill that carrier for that service again until the following insurance benefit year. That explanation of benefits denying the claim, once submitted to the central billing office, shall be sufficient to meet the requirements of this paragraph as to subsequent services billed under the same billing code provided to that child during that insurance benefit year. Any time limit on a provider's filing of a claim for payment with the central billing office that is imposed through a policy, procedure, or rule of the lead agency shall be suspended until the provider receives an explanation of benefits or other final determination of the claim it files with the child's insurance carrier. (b) In all instances when an insurance carrier has been billed for early intervention services, whether paid in full, paid in part, or denied by the carrier, the provider must provide the central billing office, within 90 days after receipt, with a copy of the explanation of benefits form and other information in the manner prescribed by the lead agency. (c) When the insurance carrier has denied the claim or paid an amount for the early intervention service billed that is less that the current State rate for early intervention services, the provider shall submit the explanation of benefits with a claim for payment, and the lead agency shall pay the provider the difference between the sum actually paid by the insurance carrier for each unit of service provided under the individualized family service plan and the current State rate for early intervention services. The State shall also pay the family's co-payment or co-insurance under its plan, but only to the extent that those payments plus the balance of the claim do not exceed the current State rate for early intervention services. The provider may under no circumstances bill the family for the difference between its charge for services and that which has been paid by the insurance carrier or by the State. (325 ILCS 20/13.20 new) Sec. 13.20. Families with insurance coverage; payment for services. (a) Families of children with insurance coverage, whether public or private, shall incur no greater or less direct out-of-pocket expenses for early intervention services than families who are not insured. (b) Deductibles. When the deductible on a family's insurance plan or policy has not yet been met in full under the terms of the plan or policy, the provider must first bill the insurance carrier. If the provider reimbursement is reduced in whole or in part by the remaining amount of a deductible, the provider shall then bill the lead agency's central billing office. The provider shall be paid the difference for the services up to the amount payable under the State's early intervention fee-for-service rates and shall in no case bill the family for the services not paid for under the plan or policy. (c) Co-payments and co-insurance. Financial responsibility for private insurance co-payments or co-insurance payments required by a family's insurance carrier on claims paid for early intervention
63 [May 8, 2001] services is transferred in full to the lead agency. The lead agency shall pay the provider the sum that would otherwise be payable directly by the family under its insurance plan or policy and the sum payable under subsection (c) of Section 13.15, unless the provider already has been paid a sum by the carrier for the early intervention service provided that is equal to or in excess of the State rate for that service. The provider may not bill the family for co-payments or co-insurance payments, whether paid by the lead agency under this subsection or not. (d) Managed care plans. (1) Families receiving services from an out-of-network provider on the effective date of this amendatory act of the 92nd General Assembly shall have 45 days to transfer to an available credentialed specialist who is enrolled in the family's network, unless the plan or policy allows for payment of services provided by out-of-network provider. When a family's insurance coverage is through a managed care arrangement with a network of providers that includes one or more credentialed specialists who provide services prescribed under its individualized family service plan, the family shall use the network providers for each early intervention service for which there is an available credentialed specialist, unless (1) the child is over 26 months old and has already established a relationship with a non-network provider before the effective date of this amendatory Act of the 92nd General Assembly, or (2) the family would have to travel more than 15 miles or more than 30 minutes to the network provider within the family's managed care network of providers. (2) The lead agency, in conjunction with any entities with which it may have contracted for the training and credentialing of providers, the local interagency council for early intervention, the regional intake entity, and the enrolled providers in each region who wish to participate, shall cooperate in developing a matrix and action plan that (1) identifies which managed care plans are used in its region by families with children in the early intervention program, and which early intervention services, with what restrictions, if any, are covered under those plans, (2) identifies which credentialed specialists are members of which managed care plans in the region, and (3) identifies the various managed care plans to credentialed specialists, encourages their enrollment in the area plans, and provides them with information on how to enroll. These matrices shall be complete no later than 7 months after the effective date of this amendatory Act of the 92nd General Assembly, and shall be provided to the Early Intervention Legislative Advisory Committee at that time. The lead agency shall work with networks that may have closed enrollment to additional providers to encourage their admission of early intervention credentialed specialists, and shall report to the Early Intervention Legislative Advisory Committee on the initial results of these efforts no later than February 1, 2002. (325 ILCS 20/13.25 new) Sec. 13.25. Private insurance; exemption. (a) No later than 60 days after the effective date of this amendatory Act of the 92nd General Assembly, the lead agency shall adopt rules to establish procedures by which a family whose child is eligible to receive early intervention services may apply for an exemption restricting the use of its private insurance plan or policy based on material risk of loss of coverage. (b) The lead agency shall rule on a claim for an exemption within 10 days after its receipt of a written request for an exemption at the regional intake entity. During that 10 days, no claims may be filed against the insurance plan or policy. If the exemption is granted, it shall be noted on the individualized family service plan, and the family and the providers serving the family shall be notified in writing of the exemption. (c) An exemption may be granted if the family submits documentation with its request for an exemption that establishes that
[May 8, 2001] 64 either (i) the insurance plan or policy covering the child is an individually purchased plan or policy and has been purchased by a self-employed head of the household who is not eligible for a group medical insurance plan, is a member of a group plan with less than 15 employee members, or has a policy with a lifetime cap on one or more types of early intervention services that could be exhausted during the period covered by the individualized family service plan or (ii) such other circumstances exist relative to the plan or policy and its use for early intervention services that there is a material risk of loss of coverage, as the lead agency may establish by rule, and that (iii) the family's income and financial circumstances make it materially unacceptable to absorb the established risk of higher premiums, amended coverage, or policy restrictions or changes. (d) An exemption under this Section based on material risk of loss of coverage may apply to all early intervention services and all plans or policies insuring the child, may be limited to one or more plans or policies, or may be limited to one or more types of early intervention services in the child's individualized family services plan. (325 ILCS 20/13.30 new) Sec. 13.30. System of personnel development. The lead agency shall contract, under a public request for proposals that shall be open and posted on its early intervention website for no less than 30 days, with one or more entity to provide training to credentialed early intervention specialists. This training shall include, at minimum, the following types of instruction: (a) Courses in birth-to-3 evaluation and treatment of children with developmental disabilities and delays (1) that are taught by fully credentialed specialists with substantial experience in evaluation in treatment of children from birth to age 3 with developmental disabilities and delays, and who are approved, as appropriate to the discipline, by the Department of Professional Regulation to provide continuing education to that discipline, (2) that cover these topics within each of the disciplines of audiology, occupational therapy, physical therapy, speech and language pathology, and developmental therapy, (3) that are held no less than twice per year, (4) that offer no fewer than 20 contact hours per year of course work, (5) that are held in no fewer than 5 separate locales throughout the State, and (6) that give enrollment priority to those provisionally enrolled associate specialists who do not meet the experience, education, or continuing education requirements necessary to be fully credentialed early intervention specialists; and (b) Courses held no less than twice per year for no fewer than 4 hours each in no fewer than 5 separate locales throughout the State each on the following topics: (1) Practice and procedures of private insurance billing.

This direction and supervision must include, at a minimum, the co-signature of the supervising specialist on progress reports, treatment recommendations, and claims of the individual who is providing services on a provisional basis. An individual who is provisionally credentialed shall submit documentation at the point of enrollment and every 6 months thereafter of the specific steps he or she is taking to meet the requirements of this Section, and shall set forth the nature of the supervision and the name or names of the credentialed specialist or specialists supervising his or her work with children enrolled in the early intervention program.

An individual who is enrolled by the lead agency as a fully credentialed specialist within his or her discipline under the requirements of the lead agency as of the effective date of this amendatory Act of the 92nd General Assembly shall meet the requirements of subsection (c) or (d) of this Section that are relevant to that discipline within 24 months of that effective date, and during that 24 months the individual may supervise provisionally enrolled associates so long as they had met the credentialing requirements as of the effective date of this amendatory Act of the 92nd General Assembly. An individual who is enrolled by the lead agency as a provisionally enrolled associate within his or her discipline under the requirements of the lead agency as of the effective date of this amendatory Act of the 92nd General Assembly shall meet the higher education and licensing requirements of subsection (c) or (d) relative to his or her discipline within 12 months after the effective date of this amendatory Act of the 92nd General Assembly, and shall meet the remaining requirements of subsection (c) or (d) appropriate to the discipline within 24 months
69 [May 8, 2001] after that effective date. (k) Continuing education. To maintain enrollment as a credentialed specialist, the individual must certify, every 3 years, that he or she has completed no less than 20 additional contact hours of continuing education in birth-to-3 evaluation and treatment. Payment of the costs of continuing education shall be the responsibility of the credentialed specialist. (l) Waivers. The lead agency shall establish procedures, by rule, that allow for the consideration and approval of regional waivers of the requirements of this Section related to birth-to-3 professional education, birth-to-3 pediatric experience, continuing education, and, in the case of service coordinators and developmental therapists, the bachelors degree requirement. The waiver may also allow designated services to be provided by assistants and graduate students who would have been authorized to provide services before the effective date of this amendatory Act of the 92nd General Assembly so long as they work under the supervision of fully credentialed and licensed individuals, as provided under subsection (f) of this Section. The waiver shall be developed in conjunction with the regional intake entity and the local inter-agency council on early intervention. A waiver may be granted only upon a showing that there is an insufficient number of fully credentialed specialists to meet the demand for timely early intervention services in a particular region. A waiver shall specify what areas of specialty are covered by the waiver, the geographic reach of the waiver, the specific requirements being waived, and the length of time of the waiver. No waiver may be granted for more than 2 years, but a waiver may be renewed after its 2-year or shorter expiration date upon a showing that all reasonable steps have been taken to increase the supply of fully credentialed specialists and that the waiver continues to be necessary to avoid waiting lists for services. The waiver must set forth a detailed plan to meet all the requirements of this Section before the expiration of the waiver.".

To effectuate the purpose and policy of this Act each public body shall, during the month of June of each calendar year, investigate and ascertain the prevailing rate of wages as defined in this Act and publicly post or keep available for inspection by any interested party in the main office of such public body its determination of such prevailing rate of wage and shall promptly file a certified copy thereof in the office of the Secretary of State at Springfield. The Department of Labor shall during the month of June of each calendar year, investigate and ascertain the prevailing rate of wages for each county in the State. If a public body does not investigate and ascertain the prevailing rate of wages during the month of June as required by the previous paragraph, then the prevailing rate of wages for that public body shall be the rate as determined by the Department under this paragraph for the county in which such public body is located. Where the Department of Labor ascertains the prevailing rate of wages, it is the duty of the Department of Labor within 30 days after receiving a notice from the public body authorizing the proposed work, to conduct an investigation to ascertain the prevailing rate of wages as defined in this Act and such investigation shall be conducted in the locality in which the work is to be performed.

At any time within 15 days after a certified copy of the determination has been published as herein provided, any person affected thereby may object in writing to the determination or such part thereof as they may deem objectionable by filing a written notice with the public body or Department of Labor, whichever has made such
77 [May 8, 2001] determination, stating the specified grounds of the objection.

Such hearing by a public body shall be held within 20 days after the objection is filed, and shall not be postponed or reset for a later date except upon the consent, in writing, of all the objectors and the public body. If such hearing is not held by the public body within the time herein specified, the Department of Labor may, upon request of the objectors, conduct the hearing on behalf of the public body.

In all reviews or appeals under this Act, it shall be the duty of the Attorney General to represent the Department of Labor, and defend its determination. The Attorney General shall not represent any public body, except the State, in any such review or appeal. Contractors and subcontractors covered by this Act shall post, at a location on the project site of the public works that is easily accessible to their employees engaged on the project, the prevailing wage rates for each craft or type of worker or mechanic needed to execute the contract or project or work to be performed. A failure to post a prevailing wage rate as required by this Section is a violation of this Act. (Source: P.A. 83-201.)".

Having been printed, was taken up and read by title a second time. The following amendment was offered in the Committee on Executive, adopted and printed: AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO SENATE BILL 1011
[May 8, 2001] 78 AMENDMENT NO. 1. Amend Senate Bill 1011 by replacing everything after the enacting clause with the following: "Section 5. The Criminal Code of 1961 is amended by adding Article 48 as follows: (720 ILCS 5/Art. 48 heading new) ARTICLE 48. PROMOTING A CRIMINAL RAVE (720 ILCS 5/48-1 new) Sec. 48-1. Legislative findings and intent. (a) The General Assembly finds that raves: (1) are dance parties that are extremely conducive to the unlawful delivery, possession, and use of controlled substances; (2) expose their participants, most of whom are under the age of 25 and some of whom are as young as the age of 12, to drug activity that can result in drug addiction, great bodily harm, and death; (3) provide an arena for predatory sexual crimes; (4) further the interests of organized criminals; (5) foster attitudes of toleration towards the unlawful delivery, possession, and use of controlled substances and contempt or indifference towards the laws controlling those substances; (6) increase the dropout, truancy, and failure rates of children attending schools within this State; (7) interfere with the duty of parents and legal guardians to provide for the physical, mental, and emotional well-being of their children and the rights of parents to raise their children free from physical, mental and emotional harm caused by the unlawful use of controlled substances; and (8) increase the costs incurred by the citizens of this State for law enforcement, insurance, and medical services. (b) The General Assembly finds that, in light of the findings made in subsection (a), raves and similarly structured activities are matters of legitimate, substantial, and compelling governmental interest that give rise to a special need to shield minors and young adults who attend raves from the problems enumerated in subsection (a) and safeguard the rights of parents and legal guardians of unemancipated minors who attend raves. The General Assembly further finds that, by knowingly creating, permitting, or fostering environments in which uninitiated and vulnerable minors and young adults can be initially exposed to controlled substances that may cause great bodily harm, death, or addiction, persons who promote or facilitate criminal raves are as culpable as persons who manufacture or deliver those substances. It is therefore the intent of the General Assembly to address the problems presented by raves by the enactment of criminal penalties and civil sanctions and causes of action. (720 ILCS 5/48-5 new) Sec. 48-5. Definitions. As used in this Article: "Controlled substance" means any drug, substance or precursor listed in the Schedules of Article II of the Illinois Controlled Substances Act. "Deliver" or "delivery" mean the actual, constructive, or attempted transfer of controlled substances, with or without consideration, whether or not there is an agency relationship. "Rave" means a party-like event at a location not zoned for alcoholic beverages at which 25 or more persons pay money or other consideration or make a purchase of anything of value in order to enter or remain in a building, room or area where the participants dance or otherwise socialize against a background of flashing, strobe, or laser lights and music that is electronically produced, reproduced, or transmitted. A rave does not include an event that occurs or is conducted at or on: (1) A private residence or residential facility from which the general public is excluded; (2) A place owned or operated by federal, State, county, township, or municipal government; (3) A public or private elementary school, secondary school, college, community college, or university;
79 [May 8, 2001] (4) A place owned or operated by a bona fide religious organization created, organized, existing, and recognized as such pursuant to all applicable laws; or (5) A place owned, operated, or rented by, or that is being made available for the use of, a non-profit community service or developmental organization, agency, or club, a charitable organization as defined in Section 1 of the Solicitation for Charity Act, a bona fide union, a bona fide political organization, a bona fide political action committee, or a bona fide fraternal, patriotic, military, veterans' professional, alumni, or youth organization, association, or club. (720 ILCS 5/48-10 new) Sec. 48-10. Promoting a criminal rave. (a) A person commits the offense of promoting a criminal rave if he or she manages or controls any building, room or area either as owner, lessee, agent, or employee on which a rave is conducted and, during the course of the rave, knowingly rents, leases or makes available for use, with or without consideration, that building, room, or area for the purpose of possessing, delivering, or using a controlled substance in violation of the Illinois Controlled Substances Act. (b) Sentence. Promoting a criminal rave is a Class 2 felony. (720 ILCS 5/48-15 new) Sec. 48-15. Aggravated promotion of a criminal rave. (a) Any person who violates Section 48-10 with knowledge that any person under the age of 18 is in attendance at the rave that was the subject of the violation without the permission of his or her parent or legal guardian commits the offense of aggravated promotion of a rave. (b) Sentence. Aggravated promotion of a rave is a Class 1 felony. (720 ILCS 5/48-20 new) Sec. 48-20. Forfeiture of property. (a) Any person who is convicted of a violation of Section 48-10 or Section 48-15 of this Article shall forfeit to the State of Illinois all proceeds received from the rave that was the subject of the violation. (b) Any person convicted of a violation of Section 48-10 or Section 48-15 of this Article shall forfeit to the State of Illinois all personal property used to facilitate the rave that was the subject of the violation. (720 ILCS 5/48-25 new) Sec. 48-25. Civil liability. Any person who is in violation of Section 48-15 of this Article shall be liable to the parent or legal guardian of an unemancipated minor under the age of 18 who attended the rave that was the subject of the violation in an amount not less than $5,000. If a controlled substance was delivered to the minor during the course of the rave, the person shall be liable to the parent or legal guardian of the minor in an amount not less than $10,000. If the minor suffers death or incurs any harm or injury as a result of having ingested a controlled substance obtained or ingested at the rave, the person shall be liable to the parent or legal guardian of the minor for all damages resulting from the death or injury and the court may award punitive damages.".

Refunds withheld; tax claims of other states. (a) Definitions. In this Section the following terms have the meanings indicated. "Claimant state" means any state or the District of Columbia that requests the withholding of a refund pursuant to this Section and that extends a like comity for the collection of taxes owed to this State. "Income tax" means any amount of income tax imposed on taxpayers under the laws of the State of Illinois or the claimant state, including additions to tax for penalties and interest. "Refund" means a refund of overpaid income taxes imposed by the State of Illinois or the claimant state. "Tax officer" means a unit or official of the claimant state, or the duly authorized agent of that unit or official, charged with the imposition, assessment, or collection of state income taxes. "Taxpayer" means any person identified by a claimant state under this Section as owing taxes to that claimant state, and in the case of a refund arising from the filing of a joint return, the taxpayer's spouse. (b) In general. Except as provided in subsection (c) of this Section, a tax officer may: (1) certify to the Director the existence of a taxpayer's delinquent income tax liability; and (2) request the Director to withhold any refund to which the taxpayer is entitled. (c) Comity. A tax officer may not certify or request the Director to withhold a refund unless the laws of the claimant state: (1) allow the Director to certify an income tax liability; (2) allow the Director to request the tax officer to withhold the taxpayer's tax refund; and (3) provide for the payment of the refund to the State of Illinois. (d) Certification. A certification by a tax officer to the Director shall include: (1) the full name and address of the taxpayer and any other names known to be used by the taxpayer; (2) the social security number or federal tax identification number of the taxpayer; (3) the amount of the income tax liability; and (4) a statement that all administrative and judicial remedies and appeals have been exhausted or have lapsed and that the assessment of tax, interest, and penalty has become final. (e) Notification. As to any taxpayer due a refund, the Director shall: (1) notify the taxpayer that a claimant state has provided certification of the existence of an income tax liability; (2) inform the taxpayer of the tax liability certified, including a detailed statement for each taxable year showing tax,
[May 8, 2001] 84 interest, and penalty; (3) inform the taxpayer that failure to file a protest in accordance with subsection (f) of this Section shall constitute a waiver of any demand against this State for the amount certified and will result in payment to the claimant state as provided in subsection (i) of this Section; (4) provide the taxpayer with notice of an opportunity to request a hearing to challenge the certification; and (5) inform the taxpayer that the hearing may be requested (i) pursuant to Section 910 of this Act, or (ii) with the tax officer, in accordance with the laws of the claimant state. (f) Protest of withholding. A taxpayer may protest the withholding of a refund pursuant to Section 910 of this Act (except that the protest shall be filed within 30 days after the date of the Director's notice of certification pursuant to subsection (e) of this Section). If a taxpayer files a timely protest, the Director shall: (1) suspend the proposed withholding and impound the claimed amount of the refund; (2) pay to the taxpayer the unclaimed amount of the refund, if any; (3) send a copy of the protest to the claimant state for determination of the protest on its merits in accordance with the laws of that state; and (4) pay over to the taxpayer the impounded amount if the claimant state shall fail, within 45 days after the date of the protest, to re-certify to the Director (i) that the claimant state has reviewed the issues raised by taxpayer, (ii) that all administrative and judicial remedies provided under the laws of that state have been exhausted, and (iii) the amount of the income tax liability finally determined to be due. (g) Certification as prima facie evidence. If the taxpayer requests a hearing pursuant to Section 910 of this Act, the certification of the tax officer shall be prima facie evidence of the correctness of the taxpayer's delinquent income tax liability to the certifying state. (h) Rights of spouses to refunds from joint returns. If a certification is based upon the tax debt of only one taxpayer and if the refund is based upon a joint personal income tax return, the nondebtor spouse shall have the right to: (1) notification, as provided in subsection (e) of this Section; (2) protest, as to the withholding of such spouse's share of the refund, as provided in subsection (f) of this Section; and (3) payment of his or her share of the refund, provided the amount of the overpayment refunded to the spouse shall not exceed the amount of the joint overpayment. (i) Withholding and payment of refund. Subject to the taxpayer's rights of notice and protest, upon receipt of a request for withholding in accordance with subsection (b) of this Section, the Director shall: (1) withhold any refund that is certified by the tax officer; (2) pay to the claimant state the entire refund or the amount certified, whichever is less; (3) pay any refund in excess of the amount certified to the taxpayer; and (4) if a refund is less than the amount certified, withhold amounts from subsequent refunds due the taxpayer, if the laws of the claimant state provide that the claimant state shall withhold subsequent refunds of taxpayers certified to that state by the Director. (j) Determination that withholding cannot be made. After receiving a certification from a tax officer, the Director shall notify the claimant state if the Director determines that a withholding cannot be made. (k) Director's authority. The Director shall have the authority to enter into agreements with the tax officers of claimant state relating to:
85 [May 8, 2001] (1) procedures and methods to be employed by a claimant state with respect to the operation of this Section; (2) safeguards against the disclosure or inappropriate use of any information obtained or maintained pursuant to this Section that identifies, directly or indirectly, a particular taxpayer; (3) a minimum tax debt, amounts below which, in light of administrative expenses and efficiency, shall, in the Director's discretion, not be subject to the withholding procedures set forth in this Section. (l) Remedy not exclusive. The collection procedures prescribed by this Section are in addition to, and not in substitution for, any other remedy available by law.".
