Bill > S4464

This bill requires State entities in the Executive Branch of New Jersey government to offer businesses an optional electronic notification service for receiving legally required notices. These notices could include communications such as violation notices, underpayment notifications, and employee unemployment claims. Within 60 days of the bill's effective date, each State entity must inform businesses within their jurisdiction about this optional electronic service and provide the necessary information for businesses to opt in. The bill defines "State entity" broadly to include not just departments and agencies, but also boards, commissions, corporations, authorities, and other instrumentalities within the State's Executive Branch. By providing this optional electronic service, the bill aims to modernize and potentially streamline how businesses receive official government communications, giving them a digital alternative to traditional paper notices. The bill will take effect 90 days after its enactment, allowing State entities time to develop and implement the electronic notification system.
