Establishes Department of State Police as principal department in executive branch of State government.

This bill (S 3487) reorganizes New Jersey's executive branch by renaming the Division of State Police as the Department of State Police and designating it as the principal department within the state government. It amends existing statutes to update all references to "Division of State Police" to "Department of State Police" in laws, contracts, and documents, including changing the title of the head from "Superintendent" to "Director" for consistency. The bill elevates the State Police from a division under the Department of Law and Public Safety to a standalone department, directly affecting state administrative structure and all official materials referencing the agency. This is a structural change with no new policy provisions, solely updating organizational terminology and hierarchy.
