New Jersey § 52:14c-5

§ 52:14c-5.

A reorganization plan transmitted by the Governor under section 4 of this act-- (a) May change, in such cases as the Governor considers necessary, the name of an

agency affected by a reorganization and the title of its heads and shall designate

the name of an agency resulting from a reorganization and the title of its head; (b) May provide for the appointment and compensation of the head and one or more officers

of an agency (including an agency resulting from a consolidation or other type of

reorganization) if the Governor finds, and in his message transmitting the plan declares,

that by reason of a reorganization made by the plan the provisions are necessary. The head so provided may be an individual or may be a commission or board with more

than one member. In case of such an appointment, the term of office may not be fixed for a period

in excess of the term remaining to be served by the then Governor, the pay may not

be at a rate in excess of that found by the Governor to be applicable to comparable

officers in the Executive branch, and, if the appointment is not to a position in

the competitive service, it shall be made by the commissioner or other chief executive

officer, board or commission of the executive department affected. (c) Shall provide for the transfer or other disposition of the records, property,

and personnel affected by a reorganization; (d) Shall provide for the transfer of such unexpended balances of appropriations,

and of other funds, available for use in connection with a function or agency affected

by a reorganization, as the Governor considers necessary by reason of the reorganization

for use in connection with the functions affected by the reorganization, or for the

use of the agency which shall have the functions after the reorganization plan is

effective. However, the unexpended balances so transferred may be used only for the purposes

for which the appropriation was originally made; and (e) Shall provide for terminating the affairs of an agency abolished.
