"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 New Jersey state and local government agencies that provide public services - such as issuing licenses, permits, or certifications - to simplify processes and speed up service delivery. Within 180 days of the law taking effect, these agencies must review operations to identify ways to reduce delays, eliminate redundancies, and increase efficiency. They must also conduct annual reviews of transactional services and, where feasible, adopt online tools or automated systems using plain language to make services easier to use. Additionally, agencies must provide public feedback mechanisms for users to share experiences, with responses reviewed within 30 days to inform future improvements.
