a. cause copies of the voter registration forms furnished under subsection f. of section 16 of P.L.1974, c.30 (C.19:31-6.4) to be prominently displayed at each public office of the division and to be made readily available to each individual who, when applying for benefits administered by the division, may wish, on a voluntary basis, to register to vote.

The employee shall provide the applicant with any assistance necessary in completing the form; shall inform the applicant that the applicant may leave the completed form with the employee; and, if the applicant chooses to leave the form, shall accept the completed form, stamp or otherwise mark it with the date on which it was so received, and forward it to the Secretary of State;
b. provide for the continuous supply of the forms and instructions specified in subsection a. of this section to every office of the division which receives applications for services administered by the division;
