1. A complete record must be kept of all hearings before the Authority, and all testimony must be taken down by the stenographer appointed by the Authority, or, under the direction of any competent person appointed by the Authority, reported by sound recording equipment in the manner authorized for reporting testimony in district courts. The testimony reported by a stenographer must be transcribed and filed with the record in the matter. The Authority may by regulation provide for the transcription or safekeeping of sound recordings.

A copy of the proceedings and testimony must be furnished to any party, on payment of a reasonable amount, to be fixed by the Authority, and the amount must be the same for all parties. 4. The provisions of this section do not prohibit the Authority from restricting access to the records and transcripts of a hearing pursuant to subsection 2 of NRS 706.1725 .
