    AN ACT concerning appropriations.

 

        Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois, represented in the General Assembly:

 

ARTICLE 0.5

 

    Section 1.  Purpose.  This Act makes appropriations and reappropriations for State fiscal year 2018.  Article 3 contains reappropriations of certain appropriations as may have been appropriated for State fiscal year 2017 by a Public Act of the 100th General Assembly.  To the extent that such a Public Act has not been enacted, Article 4 contains appropriations of identical amounts and purposes to those in Article 3 but as new appropriations rather than as reappropriations.  Section 99 of Article 5 sets forth an effective date that causes Article 3 to become effective if and only if an applicable Public Act of the 100th General Assembly should be enacted; should such not be enacted, the Section causes Article 4 to become effective.
