(750 ILCS 28/5)
Sec. 5.
Purpose; intent.
This Act consolidates into a single new Act
the lengthy and nearly identical provisions relating to income withholding for
support that were formerly contained in Section 10-16.2 of the Illinois Public
Aid Code, Section 706.1 of the Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of Marriage
Act, Section 4.1 of the Non-Support of Spouse and Children Act, and Section
20 of the Illinois Parentage Act of 1984. It also divides the consolidated
provisions into smaller Sections for ease of use and future amendment and
makes technical corrections. This Act is intended as a continuation of the
consolidated provisions, and the consolidation is not intended to make any
substantive change in the law nor to affect any order issued under any of the
consolidated provisions.
