Any member of or subscriber to a title insurance rating organization may appeal to the commissioner from any action or decision of such rating organization in approving or rejecting any proposed change in or addition to the filings of such rating organization, and the commissioner shall, after a hearing held upon not less than 10 days' written notice to the appellant and to such rating organization, issue an order approving the action or decision of such rating organization or directing it to give further consideration to such proposal and to take action or make a decision upon it within 30 days. If such appeal is from the action or decision of the title insurance rating organization in rejecting a proposed addition to its filings, he may, in the event he finds that such action or decision was unreasonable, issue an order directing said rating organization to make an addition to its filings, on behalf of its members and subscribers, in a manner consistent with his findings, within a reasonable time after the issuance of such order. If the appeal is from the action of the title insurance rating organization with regard to a rate or a proposed change in or addition to its filings relating to the character and extent of coverage, he shall approve the action of said rating organization or such modification thereof as shall have been suggested by the appellant if either be made in accordance with this act.
The failure of a title insurance rating organization to take action or make a decision within 30 days after submission to it of a proposal under this section shall constitute a rejection of such proposal within the meaning of this section. If such appeal is based upon the failure of said rating organization to make a filing on behalf of such member or subscriber which is based on a system of expense allocation which differs from the system of expense allocation included in a filing made by said rating organization, the commissioner shall, if he grants the appeal, order the rating organization to make the requested filing for use by the appellant. In deciding such appeal, the commissioner shall apply the standards set forth in section 43 of this act.
