Prohibits imposition of civil penalties on State agencies by State agencies.
This bill prohibits New Jersey state agencies from imposing civil penalties (fines) on other state agencies or their divisions. It directly affects all state agencies by preventing one agency from fining another agency under any existing law. The key provision states that no state agency may assess, impose, or enforce such penalties on another state agency, overriding any current legal authority that might allow it. The bill takes effect immediately upon enactment.
