§ 16-158.1.
Actions to enforce payments by school districts and other employing units. Any school district or other employing unit failing to transmit to the System contributions required of it under this Article or contributions required of teachers, for more than 90 days after such contributions are due is subject to the following: after giving notice to the district or other unit, the System may certify to the State Comptroller or the Regional Superintendent of Schools the amounts of such delinquent payments and the State Comptroller or the Regional Superintendent of Schools shall deduct the amounts so certified or any part thereof from any State funds to be remitted to the school district or other employing unit involved and shall pay the amount so deducted to the System. If State funds from which such deductions may be made are not available, the System may proceed against the school district or other employing unit to recover the amounts of such delinquent payments in the appropriate circuit court. The System may provide for an audit of the records of a school district or other employing unit as may be required to establish the amounts of required contributions. The school district or other employing unit shall make its records available to the System for the purpose of such audit. The cost of such audit shall be added to the amount of the delinquent payments and shall be recovered by the System from the school district or other employing unit at the same time and in the same manner as the delinquent payments are recovered.
