`confidential, is no longer confidential, the Commission, the administrative law judge, and the
`
`Commission investigative attorney shall take all necessary and proper steps to preserve the

`
`administrative law judge. If the recipient and supplier are unable to concur upon the status of the

`
`grounds, it shall notify the recipient in writing of its objection and the grounds therefor prior to
`
`the initial disclosure. If the dispute is not resolved on an inform~ basis within ten days of
`
`receipt of such notice of objections, the supplier shall submit immediately each objection to the
`
`administrative law judge for a ruling. If the investigation is before the Commission the matter
`
`shall be submitted to the Commission for resolution. The submission of such confidential
`
`business information to such proposed expert shall be withheld pending the ruling of the
