Bill Summary

This bill provides that persons who, prior to moving to New Jersey, rendered barbering services in another state or foreign country that does not issue licenses to provide barbering services, may qualify for a provisional permit under the three-year pilot program, which was established in P.L.2019, c.20 (C.45:5B-28) and is extended for an additional three years. The pilot program is applicable to a pilot city, which is defined to mean Elizabeth, Passaic, Paterson, and Perth Amboy. Under the bill, a provisional permit issued under the pilot program is to be valid for a period of 120 days and is subject to an extension if the applicant continues to meet the criteria of the pilot program and the application for issuance of a license remains pending. Under current law, the three-year pilot program applies only to those persons who possess a license to render barbering services in another state or foreign country and who meet certain other criteria.

AI Summary

This bill extends a three-year pilot program in New Jersey for an additional three years, allowing individuals who previously provided barbering services in another state or foreign country, even if that jurisdiction did not require a license, to obtain a provisional permit to practice barbering in New Jersey. This provisional permit, valid for 120 days and potentially extendable, is specifically applicable to a "pilot city," which is defined as Elizabeth, Passaic, Paterson, and Perth Amboy. The program aims to help these individuals continue practicing while their applications for a full New Jersey barbering license are pending, provided they meet the program's criteria and work under the supervision of a licensed New Jersey barber.
