The State registrar may suspend the authority of a local registrar, deputy registrar, alternate deputy registrar or subregistrar to participate in the NJ-EDRS, and thereby preclude that person from doing burial permitting or death registration, if the State registrar determines that the applicable registration district is insufficiently equipped or provides untimely service with respect to the review and final authentication of records.
