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.

Sec. 20-80. Referrals of investigations.

 If an Executive
Inspector General determines that any alleged misconduct involves
any person not subject to the jurisdiction of the Executive
Ethics Commission, that Executive Inspector General shall refer the
reported allegations to the appropriate Inspector General, appropriate ethics
commission, or other
appropriate body. If an Executive Inspector General determines that
any alleged misconduct may give rise to criminal penalties, the
Executive Inspector General may refer the allegations regarding that
misconduct to the appropriate law enforcement authority. If an Executive Inspector General determines that any alleged misconduct resulted in the loss of public funds in an amount of $5,000 or greater, the Executive Inspector General shall refer the allegations regarding that misconduct to the Attorney General and any other appropriate law enforcement authority.
