(a) If, after a hearing pursuant to section 38a-990, the commissioner determines that the insurance institution, agent or insurance-support organization charged has engaged in conduct or practices in violation of sections 38a-975 to 38a-998, inclusive, the commissioner shall reduce the findings to writing and shall issue and cause to be served upon such institution, agent or organization a copy of such findings and an order requiring such institution, agent or organization to cease and desist from engaging in such conduct or practices.
(b) If, after a hearing pursuant to section 38a-990, the commissioner determines that the insurance institution, agent or insurance-support organization charged has not engaged in conduct or practices in violation of sections 38a-975 to 38a-998, inclusive, the commissioner shall prepare a written report which sets forth the findings of fact and conclusions. Such report shall be served upon the insurance institution, agent or insurance-support organization charged and upon the person, if any, whose rights under said sections were allegedly violated.
(c) The commissioner may modify or set aside any order or report issued under this section until the expiration of the time allowed under section 38a-994 for filing a petition for review or until such petition is actually filed, whichever occurs first. If, after the expiration of the time allowed under section 38a-994 for filing a petition for review, no petition has been filed, the commissioner may, after notice and opportunity for hearing, alter, modify or set aside, in whole or in part, any order or report issued under this section whenever conditions of fact or law warrant such action or if the public interest so requires.
