Requires Governor to file annual report disclosing expenditures made from funds provided as allowance.
S 1708 requires New Jersey's Governor to submit an annual report by July 15th to the State Ethics Commission, detailing all expenditures from the Governor's official allowance funds used for receptions, residence operations, or similar purposes during the prior fiscal year (ending June 30). The report must include receipts for items costing above a minimal amount, listing the vendor's name, address, and a description of each purchase. This report becomes a public record and must be posted on the Ethics Commission's website. The bill directly affects the Governor's office by mandating transparency around how these unappropriated funds are spent.
