Subject to the further provisions of this chapter, any agency or person as described

in section 9:7-1 , before obtaining the consent and approval of the Commissioner of Institutions and

Agencies 1 for bringing, sending or receiving any such child into this State, shall be required

to furnish an indemnity bond, with corporate surety, in favor of the State of New

Jersey in the sum of $1,000.00, to be approved by the Commissioner of Institutions

and Agencies, conditioned as follows: That such agency or person will not send or bring, or cause to be brought or sent,

or receive into this State any child that is incorrigible, or one that is of unsound

mind or body; but nothing herein contained shall be construed to mean that blindness

in itself shall act as any barrier to the importation of any such child, subject to

all other consistent provisions of this chapter; that if any such child shall, before

reaching the age of 18 years, become a public charge such agency or person will, within

30 days after written notice given by the Commissioner of Institutions and Agencies,

remove such child from this State; and that if any such child shall be adjudged delinquent

within 3 years from the time of arrival within this State, such agency or person will

remove from this State such child within 30 days thereafter upon written notice as

aforesaid; and that if any such child who shall become a public charge as aforesaid,

or who shall be adjudged delinquent as aforementioned, shall not be so removed from

this State, then such agency or person shall at once and thereby forfeit such sum

as this State, or any county or municipality thereof, shall have expended in the care

or maintenance of such child; that such agency or person will make to the Commissioner

of Institutions and Agencies such reports as such commissioner from time to time may

require. 1
