A 4263 New Jersey General Assembly · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Directs State Auditor to conduct performance review audit of VCCO.

This bill requires New Jersey's State Auditor to review the Victims of Crime Compensation Office (VCCO) in the Department of Law and Public Safety. The audit will examine whether the VCCO uses resources efficiently, meets its legal requirements, and operates effectively. Specifically, it must analyze how the office spends federal and state funds, whether staffing levels match its legal responsibilities, and how well its internal processes work. The State Auditor must submit a report with findings and recommendations to the Governor and Legislature within six months of the bill taking effect.
