N.J.S.A. 11A:6-32 Payment of awards

Suggestion awards shall be paid from State funds appropriated for that purpose.

Title 11A · Chapter 6. Employee Leaves, Work Hours, and Career Development · Article 3

Current through the close of the 221st Legislature (L. 2025, c. 346). What that means

Reviewed as of July 28, 2026. Official text: njleg.state.nj.us.

In plain language

Twelve words closing the chapter. Suggestion awards are paid from State funds appropriated for the purpose, not from the budget of the department whose process the suggestion improved. That removes the obvious disincentive: a department has no reason to discourage a suggestion on the ground that rewarding it would cost the department money.
