      SECTION __.  Section 11A, The Real Estate License Act

as follows:
      Sec. 11A.  INCREASE IN FEES.  (a)  Each of the following fees
imposed by or under another section of this Act is increased by
$200:
            (1)  fee for filing an original application for an
individual real estate broker license;  and
            (2)  fee for annual renewal of an individual real
estate broker license.
      (b)  Subsection (a) does not apply to a real estate broker
who is on inactive status under Section 13A of this Act.
      (c)  Of each fee increase collected, $50 shall be deposited
to the credit of the foundation school fund and $150 shall be
deposited to the credit of the general revenue fund.  This
subsection applies to the disposition of each fee increase
regardless of any other provision of law providing for a different
disposition of funds.
      (2)  On page 10, between lines 7 and 8, insert the following:
      "(c)  The change in the law made by this Act to Section 11A,

becomes due on or after the effective date of this Act.  A real
estate broker fee renewal that becomes due before the effective
date of this Act is subject to the law in effect on the date the
fee became due, and the former law is continued in effect for that
purpose."
