Sec. 20. Accessible Electronic Information Service Fund.
(a) Before July 1 of each year, the Illinois Commerce Commission, in consultation with the Director, shall determine the amount of funding necessary to support the program described in Section 15 during the next fiscal year and shall certify that amount to the State Treasurer.
(b) Each month, the State Treasurer shall transfer 1/12th of the amount determined under subsection (a) from the Digital Divide Elimination Infrastructure Fund into the Accessible Electronic Information Service Fund, a special fund created in the State treasury that may be appropriated only for the purposes of this Act. If moneys in the Digital Divide Elimination Infrastructure Fund are insufficient to meet the transfer requirements of this subsection, the Illinois Commerce Commission shall direct the Illinois Telecommunications Access Corporation, or its successor, to remit the amount of any insufficiency to the Director for deposit into the Accessible Electronic Information Service Fund from surcharges collected by the Corporation, or its successor, under Section 13-703 of the Public Utilities Act.
