Illinois Statutes Chapter 20. Executive Branch § 3966/15-5. Purpose

§ 15-5. Purpose. The General Assembly finds that small businesses and their growth are critical to the economic health of the State. Small businesses, more so than larger firms, often need assistance to negotiate through complex government forms, rules, and regulations. The current overall business climate of the State would be made more attractive and competitive and would otherwise benefit from reductions in unnecessarily burdensome rules and regulations. A formal method to generate private sector analysis, input, and guidance on methods of regulatory review for the Governor and executive agencies, the constitutional officers, and the General Assembly is needed for this purpose.
