AI Summary
This bill requires the Auditor General to conduct a comprehensive survey of the Illinois Administrative Code to determine the number of mandates and restrictions placed on private sector entities and local government units. The survey will analyze the administrative burden imposed by existing regulations, with the Auditor General allowed to contract with a private entity or use artificial intelligence to complete the task. Within two years, the Auditor General must submit a detailed report of findings. Following the report, each state agency will have 9 months to submit a follow-up report acknowledging the findings and specifying the number of rules with mandates and restrictions they maintain. The Joint Committee on Administrative Rules will then calculate each agency's share of total mandates and restrictions. Critically, each state agency will be required to reduce its mandates and restrictions within two years to either 250,000 total or 80% of the original number, whichever is less. The bill aims to streamline administrative regulations and reduce regulatory burden on private entities and local governments by compelling a systematic review and reduction of existing rules across state agencies.
