Ease of Doing Government Business Act; requires State and local government entities to simplify procedures and expedite government transactions.
This bill, the "Ease of Doing Government Business Act," requires all New Jersey state and local government entities that provide public services (like issuing licenses, permits, or certifications) to simplify and speed up their processes. Within 180 days of enactment, these entities must review their operations to eliminate redundancies, reduce wait times, and increase efficiency, with annual reviews mandated thereafter. The law also mandates implementing user-friendly online tools and automated services using plain language, with options for language preference and a system for public feedback that must be reviewed within 30 days. It directly affects every government office handling public transactions, aiming to make interactions with government more efficient and accessible.
