Whenever the commissioner is authorized to hold a hearing he may delegate the actual taking of testimony to any available member of the staff of the commissioner who shall hear the matter for the commissioner and report the same to the commissioner who, alone, shall have the final decision in the matter. The person so designated to hear the matter for the commissioner may make recommendations to the commissioner in respect to the matter so heard, but the commissioner shall in nowise be bound by any such recommendation.
