Such hearing record shall be the official hearing record.(b) Any party or witness at a hearing before the Board may arrange for the preparation of a private record of such hearing provided:(1) the Chairman may at any time refuse to permit or may order such person to discontinue the preparation of such private record if the Chairman deems the preparation of such private record to limit the fairness or effectiveness of the hearing on the condition that the Chairman state on the record the Chairman's reasons for such order;(2) such private record of the hearing may not, except upon the stipulation of all parties and the consent of the Chairman, be allowed to contravene, supplement or otherwise affect the official hearing record prepared by the Board.(c) The Chairman may permit limited discussions to occur off the hearing record for good cause. If the Chairman permits any such proceedings to occur off the record, the Chairman shall, prior to going off the record, announce such fact, including the reason therefor, and immediately upon thereafter resuming proceedings on the record the Chairman shall summarize the essentials of such off-the-record discussions. For purposes of this section the term Chairman shall include any person to whom the Chairman has, pursuant to these regulations, delegated the authority to conduct the hearing.Conn.
