§ 45:1-18.
The Legislature finds and declares that: a. The regulation of certain professions or occupations through the Director of the
Division of Consumer Affairs or the boards or committees within the Division of Consumer
Affairs in the Department of Law and Public Safety is necessary to protect the health,
safety and welfare of the residents of this State; b. The unauthorized practice of a regulated profession or occupation inures to the
detriment of the public; c. The professional and occupational licensing boards and committees within the Division
of Consumer Affairs in the Department of Law and Public Safety are unable to consistently
and effectively prevent and sanction the unauthorized practice of regulated professions
and occupations due, in part, to limitations in the investigative and enforcement
powers currently afforded to the boards and commissions, and to the applicable procedures
available to address these issues; and d. It is therefore necessary and appropriate to protect the health, safety and welfare
of the residents of this State to provide the Director of the Division of Consumer
Affairs and the boards and committees within the Division of Consumer Affairs with
additional investigative and enforcement powers and enhanced procedures to more effectively
deter individuals from engaging in the unauthorized practice of a regulated profession
or occupation.
