(c) As soon as practical after July 1, 2012, the Department of Labor shall revise and clarify the rules transferred to it under this Section to reflect the reorganization of rights, powers, and duties effected by this Act, using the procedures for recodification of rules available under the Illinois Administrative Procedure Act, except that existing title, part, and section numbering for the affected rules may be retained. (d) The Department of Labor may propose and adopt, under the Illinois Administrative Procedure Act, other rules of the Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity that will now be administered by the Department of Labor.
