Information maintained by the Legislative Reference Bureau
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.

505 ILCS 130/1

    (505 ILCS 130/1) (from Ch. 5, par. 551)
    Sec. 1. Because individual producers of soybeans are unable to develop adequate new markets for their commodity, the following is declared to be the legislative policy of this Act:
        (a) To enable soybean producers of this State to
    
coordinate more effectively the maintenance and development of markets of their commodity with market demands;
        (b) To encourage through market development programs
    
a more orderly, efficient and equitable manner of marketing soybeans and soybean products;
        (c) To provide methods for the development of new and
    
larger markets for soybeans; and
        (d) Through expanded markets aid soybean producers in
    
maintaining an adequate and equitable level of income.
