1 (5 ILCS 100/5-50) (from Ch. 127, par. 1005-50)
2 Sec. 5-50. Peremptory rulemaking. "Peremptory rulemaking"
3 means any rulemaking that is required as a result of federal
4 law, federal rules and regulations, an order of a court, or a
5 collective bargaining agreement pursuant to subsection (d) of
6 Section 1-5, under conditions that preclude compliance with
7 the general rulemaking requirements imposed by Section 5-40
8 and that preclude the exercise of discretion by the agency as
9 to the content of the rule it is required to adopt. Peremptory
10 rulemaking shall not be used to implement consent orders or
11 other court orders adopting settlements negotiated by the
12 agency. If any agency finds that peremptory rulemaking is
13 necessary and states in writing its reasons for that finding,
14 the agency may adopt peremptory rulemaking upon filing a
15 notice of rulemaking with the Secretary of State under Section
16 5-70. The notice shall be published in the Illinois Register.
17 The agency shall accept data, views, arguments, or comments
18 regarding the peremptory rulemaking. The agency shall accept
19 submissions in writing, including submissions by email. In the
20 discretion of the agency, submissions may be submitted orally.
21 The notice published in the Illinois Register shall indicate
22 the manner selected by the agency for the submissions,
23 including the email address where submissions will be
24 accepted. The agency shall consider all submissions received.
25 A rule adopted under the peremptory rulemaking provisions of
26 this Section becomes effective immediately upon filing with

1 the Secretary of State and in the agency's principal office,
2 or at a date required or authorized by the relevant federal
3 law, federal rules and regulations, or court order, as stated
4 in the notice of rulemaking. Notice of rulemaking under this
5 Section shall be published in the Illinois Register, shall
6 specifically refer to the appropriate State or federal court
7 order or federal law, rules, and regulations, and shall be in a
8 form as the Secretary of State may reasonably prescribe by
9 rule. The agency shall file the notice of peremptory
10 rulemaking within 30 days after a change in rules is required.
11 The Department of Healthcare and Family Services may adopt
12 peremptory rulemaking under the terms and conditions of this
13 Section to implement final payments included in a State
14 Medicaid Plan Amendment approved by the Centers for Medicare
15 and Medicaid Services of the United States Department of
16 Health and Human Services and authorized under Section 5A-12.2
17 of the Illinois Public Aid Code, and to adjust hospital
18 provider assessments as Medicaid Provider-Specific Taxes
19 permitted by Title XIX of the federal Social Security Act and
20 authorized under Section 5A-2 of the Illinois Public Aid Code.

1 concerning any rule that the agency is considering proposing
2 but for which no notice of proposed rulemaking activity has
3 been submitted to the Illinois Register. A regulatory agenda
4 shall consist of summaries of those rules. Each summary shall,

6 practicable:

1 in a regulatory agenda if in the agency head's best judgment it
2 is necessary. If an agency finds that a situation exists that
3 requires adoption of a rule that was not summarized on either
4 of the 2 most recent regulatory agendas, it shall state its
5 reasons in writing together with the facts that form their
6 basis upon filing the notice of proposed rulemaking with the
7 Secretary of State under Section 5-40. Nothing in this Section
8 shall require an agency to adopt a rule summarized in a
9 regulatory agenda. The Secretary of State shall adopt rules
10 necessary for the publication of a regulatory agenda,
11 including but not limited to standard submission forms and
12 deadlines.
