(a) The General Assembly finds and declares that:
(1) Public Act 88-669 amended Section 2c of the

Prevention Act was repealed by Public Act 92-790, effective August 6, 2002.
(3) The Illinois Supreme Court declared Public Act
88-669 to be unconstitutional as a violation of the single subject clause of the Illinois Constitution in People v. Olender, Docket No. 98932, opinion filed December 15, 2005.
(b) The purpose of this Act is to validate actions taken under Section 2c of the Communicable Disease Prevention Act and to minimize or prevent any problems concerning those actions that may arise from the unconstitutionality of Public Act 88-669.
(c) All otherwise lawful actions taken before the effective date of this Act in reliance on or pursuant to the provisions of Section 2c of the Communicable Disease Prevention Act, as those provisions were set forth in Public Act 88-669 or as subsequently amended, by any officer, employee, or agency of State government or by any other person or entity, and all otherwise lawful grants made under that Section, are hereby validated, except to the extent prohibited under the Illinois or United States Constitution.
(d) This Act applies, without limitation, to actions pending on or after the effective date of this Act, except to the extent prohibited under the Illinois or United States Constitution.
