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. 50. Confidentiality and disclosure.

Information that (i) identifies
the purchasers or qualified beneficiaries of any Illinois prepaid tuition
contract or any terms or provisions of any such contract as those terms and
provisions relate to a particular purchaser or qualified beneficiary, or (ii)
discloses any other matter relating to the participation of any such purchaser
or qualified beneficiary in the Illinois prepaid tuition program or in any
independent plan under which that program is administered, is exempt from
inspection, copying, or disclosure under the Freedom of Information Act.
The Commission may authorize the program's records administrator to release
such information  to appropriate personnel at the eligible institution at
which the beneficiary may enroll or is enrolled
or to another state
or federal agency, for purposes that the Commission deems appropriate, in
accordance with applicable state and federal law.
However, any such institution
or agency to which that information is released shall ensure the continued
confidentiality of the information.
