The commission is authorized to incur such necessary expenses, and engage and appoint an executive officer and such competent and expert advisors, and clerical and stenographic assistants and investigators, as it may deem necessary to the proper performance of the purpose of this act, and may fix their compensation and that of its secretary, if he is not a member of the commission, within the limits of any sums appropriated or made available to it for such purposes.

Fees shall be established, prescribed or changed by regulation promulgated by the commission to the extent necessary to defray all proper expenses incurred by the commission and any staff employed to administer the Bingo Licensing Law or the Raffles Licensing Law, except that no fee shall be set at a level that will raise funds in excess of the amount necessary for these purposes.

In addition to the fees to be paid to the commission, licensed organizations shall pay a licensing fee, as established by the commission, to the municipality in which any game or games of chance are conducted. No investigator employed by the commission need be employed in accordance with the provisions of, or shall be in any manner subject to, the provisions of Title 11A, Civil Service, of the New Jersey Statutes.
