The Department may cease enrollment, change standards of eligibility, or reduce services for non-citizen children if such appropriated funds are needed to provide services to children eligible under 89 Ill. Adm. Code 125 or if such action is deemed necessary to assure that payments do not exceed appropriation authority.
