Office of Legislative Analysis


The Office of Legislative Analysis (OLA) is responsible for reviewing all tax bills introduced in the Legislature. It evaluates the potential administrative, fiscal and policy implications of proposals which are scheduled or likely to be scheduled for legislative action; it proposes amendments to insure that a bill can be effectively implemented, prepares Bill Comments and Fiscal Notes, and recommends positions to be taken by the State Treasurer.

In addition, OLA monitors legislative activity, determines when bills affecting the Division are scheduled for committee or house action, and tracks the progress of each bill as it proceeds through the Legislature. It works closely with the Treasurer's Office and, when a bill is enacted into law, it often initiates and participates in the implementation process.

In the current Legislative Session
  • Throughout the 213th legislative session, 796 tax related bills have been monitored.
  • Prepared 163 Legislative Recommendations and Bill Comments.
  • Prepared 66 Fiscal Notes.
  • Attended Assembly and Senate Committee meetings.
  • Provided information on New Jersey legislative tax developments to many persons and organizations seeking such information.
  • Tax bills were considered at 33 Assembly, and 31 Senate Committee Meetings.
  • Twenty five bills affecting the Division were signed into law including twenty that were signed at the conclusion of the previous session.
