Public Act 224 of 2004 provided for the creation of the State Drug Treatment Court Advisory Committee in the Legislative Council and went into effect on January 1, 2005. In October 2012, Public Act 334 of 2012 took effect and added a representative of a veterans treatment court to the committee makeup. Comprised of 18 members, with the State Court Administrator (or his/her designee) being one member, and the Speaker of the House and Senate Majority Leader jointly appointing the other 17 members, the advisory committee monitors the effectiveness of drug treatment courts and veterans treatment courts and the availability of funding for those courts.
The State Drug Treatment Court Advisory Committee is statutorily required to meet at least quarterly and will present annual recommendations regarding proposed statutory changes for drug treatment courts and veterans treatment courts to the Legislature and the Supreme Court in the form of an Annual Report. The Office of the Legislative Council Administrator organizes and coordinates committee activities and provides staff assistance when needed.
