New Jersey Statutes Title 30. Institutions and Agencies 30 § 4D-72

Any department or agency that creates, receives, or maintains publicly supported programs data or health data shall, only after execution of an enforceable data use, data sharing, or other similar agreement that is acceptable to the department or agency, transmit or allow access to such data as is necessary and appropriate to further the goals of this act and shall cooperate with iPHD Project requests for receipt of, or access to, such data. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no department or agency shall be required to transmit data it creates, receives, or maintains to the iPHD Project, or to allow access to such data, if the Attorney General's review or the applicable department's or agency's review determines that such transmission or access would violate State or federal law. The Attorney General's review shall include consideration of an analysis from the department or agency whose data is being requested. This section shall not prohibit the Rutgers Center for State Health Policy or any department or agency from creating, receiving, maintaining, or transmitting data in data systems that are separate and distinct from the iPHD Project.
