Illinois Code § 32

§ 32.

General Assembly notification. The Department shall notify the President of the Senate, or his or her designee, and the Speaker of the House of Representatives, or his or her designee, when awards for the purposes of this Act are nearing final negotiation with an applicant. The notification shall include the prospective amount of the award and other relevant information related to the application. The President of the Senate and the Speaker of the House, or their designees, if applicable, shall certify that they have been notified of the planned awards and that they do not object. If there is no objection certified from the President of the Senate and the Speaker of the House, the Department may enter into an agreement under this Act for the award amount contained in the notification. If the Department enters into an agreement under this Act for an award in an amount that is different than the amount contained in the notification, it shall deliver a copy of the agreement to both the Speaker of the House of Representatives, or his or her designee, and the Senate President, or his or her designee, within 2 days after the agreement is executed. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Act, an agreement entered into under this Act shall not take effect, nor may any funds be expended or transferred under that agreement, if the Speaker of the House of Representatives and the Senate President, or their designees, if applicable, submit a letter to the Department noting an objection to the agreement in writing within 2 days after the notification is delivered to the Speaker of the House of Representatives and the Senate President, or their designees, if applicable.
