Prohibits bill certified for fiscal note or estimate from being released from committee without fiscal note or estimate.
S 2500 requires that any bill certified for a fiscal note or estimate cannot be released from committee until a complete fiscal analysis is provided. This applies to all bills requiring such a note under New Jersey law, directly affecting legislators, committee chairs, and staff who handle bill processing. The key mechanism mandates that the Legislative Budget and Finance Officer must complete the fiscal analysis before a bill may proceed from committee, preventing premature committee action. The bill amends existing law to enforce this requirement, ensuring fiscal transparency before bills advance. (Procedural bill; summary limited to 3 sentences as requested.)
