§ 6.9 Adjournment of hearing to permit direct negotiation. Where, in the opinion of the board, the parties should make further efforts to settle an issue by collective bargaining or where the parties agree to do so, the board may recess the hearing to allow the parties to resume direct negotiations for as long a period as they may mutually agree upon

or until a date specified by the board for reconvening of the hearing. Whenever possible, the board shall, at the time of the recess, notify the parties of the date when the board will reconvene with the parties. If it is not possible to give such notice at the time of recess, the parties shall be given at least five days advance notice of this date of reconvening, unless the exigencies of the situation require shorter notice.

§ 6.12 Findings of fact and recommendations by the board. (a) After the conclusion of the hearing the board shall submit to the Secretary an original and six copies of its findings of fact and recommendations, unless the parties in the meantime have settled the dispute or agreed to submit it to arbitration.
