The ultimate responsibility for responding to requests for records is vested in the Secretariat of the Consumer Product Safety Commission. The Secretariat or delegate of the Secretariat may respond directly or forward the request to any other office of the Commission for response. In any case where the Secretariat or delegate of the Secretariat in his/her discretion determines that a request for an identifiable record should be initially determined by the Commission, the Secretariat, or the delegate of the Secretariat, may certify the matter to the Commission for a decision. In that event the Commission decision shall be made within the time limits set forth in § 1015.5 and shall be final. The Commission response shall be in the form set forth in § 1015.7(d) for action on appeal. If no response is made by the Commission within twenty working days, or any extension thereof, the requester and the Commission may take the action specified in § 1015.7(e).
