SB 332

Abstract

Amends the Chicago Laborers Article of the Illinois Pension Code. Provides that the Board of Trustees of the Fund has the power to issue subpoenas to compel the attendance of witnesses to testify before it and to compel the production of documents and records upon any matter concerning the Fund, including, but not limited to, in conjunction with specified matters (instead of the Board having the authority to compel witnesses to testify before it upon any matter concerning the Fund). Provides that the fees of witnesses for attendance and travel shall be the same as the fees of witnesses before the circuit courts of this State and shall be paid by the party seeking the subpoena. Provides that subpoenas issued under the provisions shall be subject to the Code of Civil Procedure. Removes language providing that the Board may allow witness fees not in excess of $6 per day. Effective immediately.
