 6    amended by changing Section 30 as follows:

 7        (P.A. 91-40, Sec. 30)
 8        Sec.  30.  Severability.   If  any  provision of this Act
 9    (Public Act 91-40) or the application thereof to  any  person
10    or  circumstance  is  held  invalid, that invalidity does not
11    affect the other provisions or applications of the Act  which
12    can  be  given  effect  without  the  invalid  application or
13    provision, and to this end the provisions  of  this  Act  are
14    severable.   This  severability  applies  without  regard  to
15    whether  the  action  challenging  the  validity  was brought
16    before the effective date of this amendatory Act of the  93rd
17    General Assembly.
18        Inseverability.   The provisions of this Act are mutually
19    dependent and inseverable.  If any provision is held  invalid
20    other than as applied to a particular person or circumstance,
21    then this entire Act is invalid.
