       INTRODUCTION
                   This report covers our
  financial audit of the  Department of Employment Security’s Non-shared
  Funds  for the year ended June 30, 2004.  A State compliance examination covering
  the two years ended June 30, 2005, will be performed next year.   AUDITORS’ OPINION
                    Our auditors stated that the
  financial statements  present fairly, in all material respects, the
  financial position of the Non-shared Funds of the Department of
  Employment  Security as of June 30, 2004, and the changes in
  financial  position thereof for the year then ended.   
  Subsequent Event
  
                 Due to the
  depletion of the Unemployment Trust Fund in early March 2003 and the
  continued borrowing from the Federal Government to pay unemployment benefits,
  the State of Illinois, acting by and through the Department, is authorized to
  issue Series 2004 Bonds pursuant to Public Act 93-0634.  On July 1, 2004, bonds for $712 million
  were issued.
