A 301 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Deactivates certain committees, councils, panels, and task forces of advisory or temporary nature if entity does not meet or have quorum at least once every year.

This New Jersey bill (A301) requires advisory or temporary committees, councils, panels, and task forces created by law to hold at least one meeting with a quorum each year to remain active. If such a body fails to meet annually, it is deemed inactive by the Secretary of State, terminating all member appointments and prohibiting the use of state, county, or municipal staff or resources. The bill targets entities established for advisory or temporary purposes under legislative acts or resolutions. It takes immediate effect, aiming to eliminate dormant government bodies without active engagement.
