S 4977 New Jersey Senate · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Requires fees for certain firearms permit applications be deposited into General Fund rather than VCCO account.

This bill changes where fees for certain firearm permit applications are deposited. Specifically, it requires that fees paid for handgun permits and firearm purchaser identification cards be sent to New Jersey's General Fund (the state's main operating budget) instead of the Violent Crime Control and Enforcement Account (VCCO). The bill amends existing law (N.J.S.2C:58-3 and N.J.S.2C:58-4) to implement this fee allocation shift. It directly affects individuals applying for these firearm permits, as their fees will now flow into the state's general budget rather than a specialized crime control fund.
