N.J.S.A. 11A:5-15 Enforcement
The Civil Service Commission may promulgate rules for the proper administration and enforcement of this chapter. Nothing herein contained shall be con… Implemented by a rule in N.J.A.C. Title 4A.
In plain language
The Commission may write rules to administer and enforce the chapter, and then a carve-out that matters more than the grant. Nothing here amends, modifies or supersedes N.J.S.A. 40A:14-25, 40A:14-115 or 40A:14-143, which are the municipal fire and police provisions in Title 40A. Where those and this chapter both speak to the same appointment, Title 40A is untouched by anything the Commission does under this one.
Written by the NJ Civil Service Navigator editorial team from the text of this section. The statute itself is below, unabridged.
Current through the close of the 221st Legislature (L. 2025, c. 346). What that means
Enacted by L. 1986, c. 112, effective September 25, 1986. Last amended by L. 2008, c. 29, effective June 30, 2008.
A New Jersey statute changes only when the Legislature amends it, so a section untouched since its last amendment is settled rather than out of date.

The rules that implement this section
A statute sets the framework and the Civil Service Commission’s rules fill in the detail. Where a question turns on procedure, the rule usually governs; where it turns on who is covered or what the Commission may do, the statute does.
