N.J. Admin. Code § 1:10-1.1

Current through Register Vol. 56, No. 24, December 18, 2024

Section 1:10-1.1 - Applicability

(a) The rules in this chapter shall apply to matters transmitted to the Office of Administrative Law by the Division of Family Development (DFD) where an applicant or recipient disputes the proposed action on eligibility or benefits entitlement by a county welfare agency (CWA) or a local decision or inaction by a municipal welfare department (MWD). These rules also apply to food stamp intentional program violations. Any aspect of the hearing not covered by these special hearing rules shall be governed by the Uniform Administrative Procedure Rules (U.A.P.R.) contained in N.J.A.C. 1:1. To the extent that these rules are inconsistent with the U.A.P.R., these rules shall apply.

(b) These rules are established in implementation of Federal law, 7 C.F.R. 273.16; 45 C.F.R. § 205.10; 7 C.F.R. § 273.15. In any case where these rules can be construed as conflicting with Federal requirements, the Federal requirements shall apply. Since these rules are established in implementation of Federal law, they may not be relaxed except as specifically provided pursuant to Federal law.
