New Hampshire HB1657 mandates reporting and approval for filling prolonged vacancies in state government positions.

New Hampshire HB1657 amends RSA 14:14-c to require state agencies to report prolonged vacancies to multiple state bodies. Specifically, agencies must identify positions vacant for at least 90 days and report details to the joint committee on employee classification, the governor, the speaker of the house of representatives, the president of the senate, the fiscal committee of the general court, and other officials. The report includes specifics such as agency, position status, pay grade, and funding allocation.
