Gives Director subpoena powers in administration of Division of Pensions and Benefits.
This bill grants the Director of the Division of Pensions and Benefits (within New Jersey's Department of the Treasury) the authority to issue subpoenas, administer oaths, and compel the production of evidence - including documents, records, or testimony - during investigations of state pension and retirement systems. It directly affects the Director, pension fund boards, and any individuals or organizations required to provide information for pension administration. The key provision allows the Director to seek contempt orders in Superior Court if someone ignores a subpoena or refuses to testify, ensuring enforceable compliance. The bill takes immediate effect upon enactment.
