This bill mandates the Attorney General of New Jersey to conduct a comprehensive study on residential burglaries within the state, collaborating with various law enforcement and judicial entities. The study will culminate in a written report that must be submitted to the Governor and the Legislature within six months of the bill's enactment, with subsequent annual reports required thereafter. The report will encompass a range of data, including annual statistics on residential burglaries from 2018 onward, categorized by county, and will detail factors such as the timing of the burglaries, the use of weapons, and the impact on victims.

Additionally, the report will summarize law enforcement initiatives aimed at addressing residential burglaries and their effectiveness, as well as provide recommendations for legislative or regulatory actions to reduce the incidence of such crimes. This initiative aims to enhance public safety and inform law enforcement strategies through data-driven insights and collaborative efforts among key stakeholders in the criminal justice system.
