How agencies must write and share their decisions
When a government agency makes a final decision against someone in a hearing, it must write the decision and explain the facts and legal reasons. If a party suggested findings, the agency must respond to each one. The agency must send a certified copy to each party or their lawyer within a reasonable time.
