Terms Used In New Jersey Statutes 43:7-19.1
- State: extends to and includes any State, territory or possession of the United States, the District of Columbia and the Canal Zone. See New Jersey Statutes 1:1-2
- Veto: The procedure established under the Constitution by which the President/Governor refuses to approve a bill or joint resolution and thus prevents its enactment into law. A regular veto occurs when the President/Governor returns the legislation to the house in which it originated. The President/Governor usually returns a vetoed bill with a message indicating his reasons for rejecting the measure. In Congress, the veto can be overridden only by a two-thirds vote in both the Senate and the House.
The State Treasurer shall designate a medical board after consultation with the Director of the Division of Pensions, subject to veto by the commission for valid reason. It shall be composed of three physicians who are not eligible to participate in the pension fund. The medical board shall pass upon all medical examinations required under the provisions of the act, shall investigate all essential statements and certificates by or on behalf of a member in connection with an application for disability retirement, and shall report in writing to the pension fund its conclusions and recommendations upon all matters referred to it.
