Bill Title: Amends the Child Death Review Team Act. Transfers the administration of child death review teams from the Department of Children and Family Services to the Department of Public Health. Provides that the Director of Public Health (rather than the Director of Children and Family Services), in consultation with the Illinois Child Death Review Teams Executive Council and specified persons who work in the field of investigating, treating, or preventing child deaths (rather than abuse or neglect in that subregion), shall appoint members to a child death review team in each of the Department of Children and Family Services' administrative regions (rather than subregions) of the State outside Cook County and at least one child death review team in Cook County. Provides that the staff of each child death review team must have complete access to the Statewide Automated Child Welfare Information System (SACWIS) and any other Child Abuse Reporting systems; and that the Department of Public Health must provide one full-time statewide liaison to attend in person at all Executive Council meetings and team meetings throughout the State. Changes provisions concerning child death reviews; a child death review team's access to records and information held by the Department of Public Health and the Department of Children and Family Services; annual reports by the Illinois Child Death Review Teams Executive Council; and the establishment of a special Child Death Investigation Task Force.
