Within 90 days after the subcommittee receives any supplemental information from an applicant pursuant to this subparagraph, the subcommittee shall forward to the Board its recommendation of whether to approve pursuant to subparagraph (2) of paragraph (d) of subsection 1 of NRS 623.192 the program of interior design completed by the applicant.
