S 3409 New Jersey Senate · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Exempts personal information from redaction and nondisclosure requirements in certain public filings and records.

This bill amends New Jersey's public records law to create specific exceptions where home addresses of certain public officials and their family members cannot be redacted or kept confidential. It affects judicial officers, law enforcement officers, child protective investigators, prosecutors, and their immediate family members who reside in the same household. The bill establishes an Office of Information Privacy within the Department of Community Affairs to manage redaction requests and specifies that home addresses may be disclosed without redaction for certain purposes, including recall petitions, campaign contribution reports, financial disclosure statements by gubernatorial candidates, and lobbyist activity reports. The director of this office must identify and display all such exceptions on a secure online portal for public access.
