New Jersey § 26:2f-13

§ 26:2f-13.

When it has been determined that a local health agency fails to provide priority health

services in accordance with standards of performance called for in its plan of work

as stated in its application for public health priority funds or ceases to comply

with the criteria for participation, public health priority funds may be reduced or

discontinued by the commissioner when, in his judgment, such action serves to further

the general purposes of this act. When it has been determined that a local health agency fails to meet the dates established

pursuant to sections 9 and 14 of P.L.1966, c. 36 ( C. 26:2F-9 and C. 26:2F-14 ) for submission of the application for public health priority funds or required reports,

public health priority funds will be reduced by one day's allocation of the total

amount, for each day that the application or report is late. This penalty may be waived, or modified, at the discretion of the commissioner for

good cause shown. The penalty may be imposed by decreasing the local health agency allocation of public

health funds for the following year.
