(1) There is hereby created a board of review within the agency to conduct the duties assigned to it in this chapter and any other responsibility as assigned by the commissioner. The board of review shall be composed of qualified employees of the agency appointed to the board by the commissioner. The commissioner shall determine the number of members on the board of review and may increase or decrease this number as needed. The commissioner is authorized to remove and/or replace a member of the board of review with or without cause.
(2) The board of review may perform its duties and responsibilities en banc or in panels of not less than three (3) members. When an appeal or other matter is considered by a panel, only the members on that panel may deliberate and vote on the appeal or matter being considered. The decision of a panel shall be deemed the final decision of the board of review. Nothing in this section shall prevent a member of the board of review from attending and/or participating in a hearing on an appeal being conducted before a panel on which he is not a member.
(3) No business shall be transacted by either the board of review en banc or by a panel of the board of review without the presence of a quorum. Three (3) members shall constitute a quorum for both the board of review and a panel of the board of review.
(4) The commissioner shall designate one (1) member of the board of review to be the chairman of the board of review. The chairman of the board of review shall preside at any meeting or hearing of the board of review en banc and at any meeting or hearing of a panel of the board of review where he is a member of that panel. In case of the absence of the chairman of the board of review at a meeting or hearing of the board of review en banc or in the case of a meeting or hearings of a panel of which he is not a member, the chairman of the board of review shall designate another member of the board of review to preside at the meeting or hearing. If circumstances do not permit such designation prior to the meeting or hearing being convened, the member of the board of review with the most tenure on the board of review shall preside. The presiding officer of a meeting or hearing of the board of review en banc or of a panel of the board of review, shall be responsible for the taking of minutes of such meeting or hearing.
