A. Copies of all Appeal Tribunal decisions shall be kept on file for a period of four years from the date the decision becomes final and available on request at the Tribunal's discretion. With the exception of the last names of claimants, all other identifying references to interested parties, to the extent possible, may be expunged from such copies.
B. Decisions published in a case digest may be made available to persons other than the parties to the appeal, if the first name of the claimant and his or her social security number are expunged or redacted from the copy made available to the public. With the exception of the last names of claimants, all other identifying references to interested parties, to the extent possible, may be expunged or redacted at the Appeal Tribunal's discretion.
C. Appeals records and decisions rendered under the Employment Security Law and designated as precedential decisions by the commissioner on the coverage of employers, employment, wages, and benefit eligibility may be published in a case digest or precedent manual, or otherwise made available to persons other than the parties to the appeal, if all social security numbers have been removed and such disclosure is otherwise consistent with federal and state law. The supervising hearing officer or the Department's General Counsel may recommend a decision to the commissioner for designation as a precedent decision. If a case is recommended for designation as a precedent decision, the commissioner shall seek comment on such designation from both the supervising hearing officer and the Department's General Counsel. The commissioner's decision as to whether or not to designate a decision as a precedent decision shall be final and not subject to further review or appeal.
