The Commission comprises three members, appointed by the Governor for staggered five-year terms. The staff includes a chief counsel, a deputy chief counsel, administrative law judges, and examiners who conduct elections, investigate cases, and author decisions. Commission decisions are appealable to the Massachusetts Appeals Court. Annotated index volumes are also available for the years 1974-1996.
