Prohibits bill certified for fiscal note or estimate from being released from committee without fiscal note or estimate.
This bill requires that any bill certified for a fiscal note or estimate cannot be released from committee until a complete fiscal note or estimate is prepared. It directly affects legislative committees, bill sponsors, and the Legislative Budget and Finance Officer, who must provide the fiscal analysis. The key mechanism mandates that committees must withhold releasing such bills until the fiscal note is finalized, preventing premature committee action. The bill does not change how fiscal notes are created but enforces a procedural requirement for their completion before bills advance. This applies to all bills requiring fiscal analysis under New Jersey law.
