S 132 New Jersey Senate · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Prohibits imposition of civil penalties on State agencies by State agencies.

This bill (S 132) prohibits one state agency from imposing civil penalties on another state agency or its divisions. It directly affects all New Jersey state agencies by preventing them from fining each other under current law. The bill explicitly states that no agency may assess, impose, or enforce civil penalties against another state agency, overriding any conflicting existing provisions. It is a procedural clarification with no new public policy or funding changes, effective immediately upon enactment.
