Illinois Statutes Chapter 30. Finance § 805/5. Specification of State Policy Objective

§ 5. Specification of State Policy Objective. (a) After the effective date of this Act, any executive order or administrative rule that creates or enlarges a mandate as defined in subsection (b) of Section 3 of this Act shall have prepared for it a Statement of Statewide policy objectives that require or justify the imposition of the proposed requirements upon local government and the extent to which such policy objectives cannot be achieved in the absence of such proposed requirements. The Statement of Statewide policy objectives for an executive order shall be filed with the executive order with the Secretary of State. The Statement of Statewide policy objectives for an administrative rule shall be published with the rule in the Illinois Register as provided in the Illinois Administrative Procedure Act.  1

As used in this Section, “rule” has the meaning provided for it in Section 1-70 of the Illinois Administrative Procedure Act.  2

(b) If the Statement of Statewide policy objectives is incorporated in the order or rule instead of being set out separately it need not be published otherwise.
