A 1310 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Establishes certain ethical standards and financial control requirements for State authorities.

This bill establishes new ethical and financial oversight requirements for New Jersey's state authorities (including boards, commissions, and agencies operating outside main government departments). It mandates annual ethics and fiscal training for authority members - covering federal financial oversight laws and duties like contract approvals - and requires executive directors to certify yearly compliance with existing ethics orders. The Inspector General must assess internal controls across all authorities and recommend uniform practices, while the Governor's Authorities Unit reviews coverage gaps and conflicts of interest. Failure to comply could lead to removal from office or employment.
