CURRENT VERSION OF TEXT
As introduced.
An Act concerning civil service eligible lists and amending N.J.S.11A:4-5.
Be It Enacted by the Senate and General Assembly of the State of New Jersey:
1. N.J.S.11A:4-5 is amended to read as follows:
11A:4-5. Use of eligible list. a. Once the examination process has been initiated due to the appointment of a provisional or an appointing authority's request for a list to fill a vacancy, the affected appointing authority shall be required to make appointments from the list if there is a complete certification, unless otherwise permitted by the commission for valid reason such as fiscal constraints. If the commission permits an appointing authority to leave a position vacant in the face of a complete list, the commission may order the appointing authority to reimburse the commission for the costs of the selection process.
b. If an appointing authority makes an appointment from an eligible list certified by the commission, the commission, upon request by the appointing authority, shall remove the name of the appointee from the list.
(cf: P.L.2008, c.29, s.34)
2. This act shall take effect immediately.
STATEMENT
Under this bill, if an appointing authority makes an appointment from an eligible list certified by the Civil Service Commission, the commission, upon the request of the appointing authority, will remove the name of the person appointed from the list.
