Sec. 212.26  Determination.

    The presiding officer shall issue a recommended determination on the 
application within 90 days after completion of proceedings on the 
application. The determination shall include written findings and 
conclusions on the applicant's eligibility and status as prevailing 
party, and an explanation of the reasons for any difference between the 
amount requested and the amount awarded. The determination shall also 
include, if at issue, findings on whether the position of the Commission 
investigative attorney was substantially justified, whether the 
applicant unduly protracted the proceedings, or whether special 
circumstances make an award unjust.
