Illinois Code § 2

§ 2.

The sponsor of each bill, referred to in Section 1, shall present a copy of the bill, with his request for a fiscal note, to the board, commission, department, agency, or other entity of the State which is to receive or expend the appropriation proposed or which is responsible for collection of the revenue proposed to be increased or decreased, or to be levied or provided for. The sponsor of a bill that amends the Mental Health and Developmental Disabilities Code or the Developmental Disability and Mental Disability Services Act shall present a copy of the bill, with his or her request for a fiscal note, to the Department of Human Services. The fiscal note shall be prepared by such board, commission, department, agency, or other entity and furnished to the sponsor of the bill within 5 calendar days thereafter; except that whenever, because of the complexity of the measure, additional time is required for preparation of the fiscal note, the board, commission, department, agency, or other entity may so inform the sponsor of the bill and he may approve an extension of the time within which the note is to be furnished, not to extend, however, beyond June 15, following the date of the request. Whenever any measure for which a fiscal note is required affects more than one State board, commission, department, agency, or other entity, the board, commission, department, agency, or other entity most affected by its provisions according to the sponsor shall be responsible for preparation of the fiscal note. Whenever any measure for which a fiscal note is required does not affect a specific board, commission, department, agency or other such entity, or does not amend the Mental Health and Developmental Disabilities Code or the Developmental Disability and Mental Disability Services Act, the sponsor of the measure shall be responsible for preparation of the fiscal note. In the case of bills having a potential fiscal impact on units of local government, the fiscal note shall be prepared by the Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity. In the case of bills having a potential fiscal impact on school districts, the fiscal note shall be prepared by the State Superintendent of Education. In the case of bills having a potential fiscal impact on community college districts, the fiscal note shall be prepared by the Illinois Community College Board. (Source: P.A. 94-793, eff. 5-19-06.)
