 INTRODUCTION         This
  digest covers our compliance attestation examination of the Teachers’
  Retirement System (System) for the year ended June 30, 2007. A financial
  audit covering the year ending June 30, 2007 was issued separately. There
  were no report findings of noncompliance identified during our testing.   FUNDING LEGISLATION
          In June 2005, Public Act 94-0004 became
  law.  This legislation modified the
  funding plan of the System by reducing the amount of required employer
  (State) contributions for fiscal years 2006 and 2007 that would have
  otherwise been required under the previous funding legislation.  State required contributions will be
  higher in future years to make up for the two-year funding reduction. 
 ACCOUNTANTS’ REPORT         We conducted a compliance attestation
  examination of the System for the year ended June 30, 2007 as required by the
  Illinois State Auditing Act.  The
  accountants’ report does not contain any scope limitations, disclaimers or
  other significant non-standard language.         _____________________________________ WILLIAM
