(15 ILCS 50/25 new)
Sec. 25. Dissolution of inactive boards and commissions.
(a) Within 30 days after the effective date of this
amendatory Act of the 97th General Assembly, each statutorily

report to the Secretary of State on that board's or

Within 30 days after receiving the reports, the Secretary of

the Senate, and the Clerk of the House of Representatives,
listing all statutorily created boards and commissions that
have not met in the 2 years immediately preceding the effective
date of this amendatory Act of the 97th General Assembly. If a
board or commission not subject to subsection (e) does not
report to the Secretary of State pursuant to this subsection,
then it shall be deemed to be inactive and subject to the
provisions of subsections (b) and (c).
(b) Unless the Governor acts pursuant to subsection (c), if
a board or commission has not met at least once during the 2
years prior to the effective date of this amendatory Act of the
97th General Assembly and is reported as inactive pursuant to
subsection (a), then the board or commission is dissolved at
the end of the 60-day period set forth in subsection (c).
(c) Within 60 days after receipt of the report by the
Secretary of State, the Governor may prevent the dissolution of
any inactive board or commission by filing a written statement
with the Secretary of State and the Senate that authorizes the
continued existence of the board or commission and provides a
rationale for why the board or commission needs to exist.
(d) Within 14 days after the 60-day period set forth in
subsection (c), the Governor shall publish a list of all boards
and commissions dissolved under subsection (b). The
Legislative Reference Bureau shall prepare for introduction no
later than in the annual session of the General Assembly next
occurring after the list is published by the Governor a

revisory bill effecting such changes in the statutes as may be
necessary to conform the statutes to the changes in law made by
the dissolution of the boards and commissions included in the
list published by the Governor. The failure of the General
Assembly to enact such a bill does not affect the validity of
the dissolution of any board or commission under this Section.
(e) Any board or commission created after July 1, 2010 is
exempt from this Section.
Section 99. Effective date. This Act takes effect upon
becoming law.".
