|
1 | | AN ACT concerning State government.
|
2 | | Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,
|
3 | | represented in the General Assembly:
|
4 | | Section 1. Findings. Identity theft is a major concern for |
5 | | the State of Illinois and its employees in both the receipt and |
6 | | management of personal funds. Easy access to salary information |
7 | | by identity thieves makes it easier for them to open new lines |
8 | | of credit in their victims' names. Preventing reporting of the |
9 | | exact amount of State employee salaries preserves employee |
10 | | privacy by lessening the ease with which identity thieves |
11 | | obtain information and helps protect State employees from |
12 | | identity theft. |
13 | | Section 5. The State Comptroller Act is amended by changing |
14 | | Sections 20 and 27 as follows:
|
15 | | (15 ILCS 405/20) (from Ch. 15, par. 220)
|
16 | | Sec. 20. Annual report. The Comptroller shall annually, as |
17 | | soon as possible after the close

of |
20 | | Representatives, the Minority Leader of the Senate, and the |
21 | | Minority

6 | | Governor, the President of the Senate, the Speaker of the House |
7 | | of

10 | | State Treasurer and into any

11 | | during the preceding fiscal year, and
stating particularly, the |
12 | | source from which the same may be derived, and
also a general |
13 | | account of all the business of his office during the
preceding |
14 | | fiscal year. The report shall also summarize for the previous
|
15 | | fiscal year the information required under Section 19.

17 | | the Comptroller
