(750 ILCS 5/704) (from Ch. 40, par. 704)
Sec. 704. Public Aid Provisions.) Except as provided in Sections 709
through 712, if maintenance, child support or
both, is awarded to persons who are recipients of aid under "The
Illinois Public Aid Code", the court shall direct the husband or wife,
as the case may be, to make the payments to (1) the Department
of Healthcare and Family Services if the persons are recipients under Articles III, IV or V
of the Code, or (2) the local governmental unit responsible for their
support if they are recipients under Article VI or VII of the Code. The
order shall permit the Department of Healthcare and Family Services or the local
governmental unit, as the case may be, to direct that subsequent
payments be made directly to the former spouse, the children, or both,
or to some person or agency in their behalf, upon removal of the former
spouse or children from the public aid rolls; and upon such direction
and removal of the recipients from the public aid rolls, the
Department or local governmental unit, as the case requires, shall give
written notice of such action to the court.
