(a) All records or certified copies thereof of any delinquent insurer which come into the possession of the receiver and are held by the receiver in the course of the delinquency proceedings shall be received in evidence in all cases without proof of the correctness of such records and without other proof, except the certificate of the receiver that such records were received from the custody of the delinquent insurer or found among its property. For the purposes of this section, “record” means books, records, documents and papers.
(b) The receiver shall have the authority to certify to the correctness of any record of his office and to make certificates of the receiver certifying to any fact contained in such records. Such records shall be received in evidence in all cases in which the original would be evidence.
(c) Original records, or certified copies thereof, when offered by the receiver and received in evidence shall be prima facie evidence of the facts disclosed.
(d) The appointment of the Insurance Commissioner as receiver shall not make records of a delinquent insurer subject to disclosure under the Freedom of Information Act, as defined in section 1-200. In the event a third party successfully pursues a records request in the receivership court, the receiver shall be reimbursed for the reasonable cost of producing such records.
