| 1 | AN ACT concerning State government.
| ||||||
| 2 | Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,
| ||||||
| 3 | represented in the General Assembly:
| ||||||
| 4 | Section 5. The Illinois Lottery Law is amended by changing | ||||||
| 5 | Section 21.13 as follows:
| ||||||
| 6 | (20 ILCS 1605/21.13) | ||||||
| 7 | Sec. 21.13. Scratch-off for Alzheimer's care, support, | ||||||
| 8 | education, and awareness. | ||||||
| 9 | (a) The Department shall offer a special instant | ||||||
| 10 | scratch-off game for the benefit of Alzheimer's care, support, | ||||||
| 11 | education, and awareness. The game shall commence on January | ||||||
| 12 | 1, 2020 or as soon thereafter, at the discretion of the | ||||||
| 13 | Director, as is reasonably practical, and shall be | ||||||
| 14 | discontinued on January 1, 2025 2022. The operation of the | ||||||
| 15 | game shall be governed by this Act and any rules adopted by the | ||||||
| 16 | Department. If any provision of this Section is inconsistent | ||||||
| 17 | with any other provision of this Act, then this Section | ||||||
| 18 | governs. | ||||||
| 19 | (b) The net revenue from the Alzheimer's care, support, | ||||||
| 20 | education, and awareness scratch-off game shall be deposited | ||||||
| 21 | into the Alzheimer's Awareness Fund. | ||||||
| 22 | Moneys received for the purposes of this Section, | ||||||
| 23 | including, without limitation, net revenue from the special | ||||||
| |||||||
| |||||||
| 1 | instant scratch-off game and from gifts, grants, and awards | ||||||
| 2 | from any public or private entity, must be deposited into the | ||||||
| 3 | Fund. Any interest earned on moneys in the Fund must be | ||||||
| 4 | deposited into the Fund. | ||||||
| 5 | For the purposes of this subsection, "net revenue" means | ||||||
| 6 | the total amount for which tickets have been sold less the sum | ||||||
| 7 | of the amount paid out in the prizes and the actual | ||||||
| 8 | administrative expenses of the Department solely related to | ||||||
| 9 | the scratch-off game under this Section. | ||||||
| 10 | (c) During the time that tickets are sold for the | ||||||
| 11 | Alzheimer's care, support, education, and awareness | ||||||
| 12 | scratch-off game, the Department shall not unreasonably | ||||||
| 13 | diminish the efforts devoted to marketing any other instant | ||||||
| 14 | scratch-off lottery game. | ||||||
| 15 | (d) The Department may adopt any rules necessary to | ||||||
| 16 | implement and administer the provisions of this Section.
| ||||||
