The New Jersey Legislature is moving to eliminate a total of 41 boards, commissions, committees, councils, and task forces that have “served their purpose, been inactive for years, no longer have a role to fulfill, have completed their work, have not been convened for a long period of time, or were never organized.”
S-1997, sponsored by Senators Jim Whelan and Fred Madden, puts on the legislative chopping block a list of entities identified in the April 19, 2010 report of the Lieutenant Governor’s Red Tape Review Group.
