A 3019 New Jersey General Assembly · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Reduces expiration date for rules from seven years to five years and requires legislative approval for readoption of rules after five years.

This bill reduces the expiration period for New Jersey state agency rules from seven years to five years. It requires legislative approval - via a concurrent resolution passed by both the Assembly and Senate - to readopt any rule after its five-year expiration date. Without such approval, the rule expires permanently, and the agency cannot propose or adopt it again for five years. The bill applies to all rules adopted after its effective date and aims to increase legislative oversight of agency regulations.
