Illinois General Assembly - Illinois Compiled Statutes

Updating the database of the Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS) is an ongoing process. Recent laws may not yet be included in the ILCS database, but they are found on this site as Public Acts soon after they become law. For information concerning the relationship between statutes and Public Acts, refer to the Guide.

Because the statute database is maintained primarily for legislative drafting purposes, statutory changes are sometimes included in the statute database before they take effect. If the source note at the end of a Section of the statutes includes a Public Act that has not yet taken effect, the version of the law that is currently in effect may have already been removed from the database and you should refer to that Public Act to see the changes made to the current law.

30 ILCS 705/13

(30 ILCS 705/13) (from Ch. 127, par. 2313)

Sec. 13.

Notwithstanding the requirements of any other State law or
regulation, an institution of higher education which conducts annual audits
of its own operations may elect to fulfill any audit requirements with
respect to any or all State grants which it receives by having such audit
conducted at the time of its own annual audit at its own cost.

The institution of higher education shall make such election at the time
that it receives each grant.  The institution of higher education shall not
be required to elect that all State grants be included in its annual audit.
Such  election may be for either financial or compliance audits, or both.
In the event of such election, such audits shall fulfill the audit
requirements of the applicable State law or regulation authorizing such
grants except for the reporting dates required for such audits.  Such
audits shall be conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards by licensed Certified Public Accountants permitted to perform audits under the Illinois Public Accounting Act.

The provisions of this Section do not limit the authority of any State agency
to conduct, or enter into contracts for the conduct of, audits and
evaluations of State grant programs, nor limit the authority of the Auditor
General.  Such State agency shall fund the cost of any such additional audits.
