A 102 New Jersey General Assembly · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Deactivates certain committees, councils, panels, and task forces of advisory or temporary nature if entity does not meet or have quorum at least once every year.

Bill A-102 requires advisory or temporary committees, councils, panels, or task forces (created by law) to meet at least once yearly to maintain activity. If they fail to meet or lack a quorum annually, the Secretary of State deems them inactive, terminating all member appointments and prohibiting them from using state, county, or municipal staff or resources. This applies to all such bodies established by statute or resolution, streamlining inactive entities without requiring new legislative action. The bill takes immediate effect upon enactment.
