HB 2443

Abstract

Amends the Riverboat Gambling Act. Provides that, upon the request of the Department of Public Aid, the Office of the Attorney General, or an Illinois State's Attorney, owner licensees must disclose the last known address of any person gambling or licensed under the Act to the requesting agency. Provides that disclosure by an owner licensee is required only for those individuals who have registered with the owner licensee's programs or who have obtained any privilege or service from the owner licensee that requires the disclosure of identity and residence and that the information shall be used by the requesting agency for the sole purpose of enforcing court-ordered child support payments. Provides that, before an owner licensee or an employee of the owner licensee may make certain disbursements or exchanges, the owner licensee or the employee must certify with the Department of Public Aid that the person does not have an unsatisfied judgment of default of court-ordered child support payments and if a person eligible for the disbursement or attempting the exchange has an unsatisfied judgment, the owner licensee or his or her employee shall withhold the amount of the judgment, which shall be remitted to the Department of Public Aid.
