Laws and Administrative Rules

Current Laws and Administrative Rules

Structured by topic area, the following provides links to the text of laws and administrative rules relevant to IDPH programs. In parentheses after each law or administrative rule is the citation or location where the law or rule can be found. Laws are listed in the Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS) by Chapter and Act number. For example: the Department of Public Health Act is designated as Act 2305 in Chapter 20 of the ILCS and would be shown as “(20 ILCS 2305).” Rules are organized in the Illinois Administrative Code (Ill. Adm. Code) by Title and Part number. For example: the rules outlining IDPH’s organizational structure – the Public Information, Rulemaking and Organization Code – are located in Part 1125 of Title 2 of the Illinois Administrative Code and referred to as “(2 Ill. Adm. Code 1125).” In many instances, only some sections of a broader law are relevant to a program. Since the links are to an entire Act, where applicable, section numbers are listed in the link to guide you to the relevant provisions of the law.
