(d)If the Commission staff, after the respondent files a written response pursuant to § 111.35, forwards any additional documents pertaining to the matter to the reviewing officer for his or her examination, the reviewing officer shall also furnish a copy of the records to the respondents.
(e)Upon completion of the review, the reviewing officer shall forward a written recommendation to the Commission along with all records required under this section and 11 CFR 111.32 and 111.35.
(f)The reviewing office shall also forward a copy of the recommendation to the respondent. The respondent may file with the Commission Secretary a written response to the recommendation within ten
