    §   8-703   Investigative   reporting   requirements.   The  following
  requirements  shall  apply   to   all   complaints   alleging   that   a
  discriminatory boycott or blacklist is occurring:
    (1)  The  commission  shall  begin an investigation within twenty-four
  hours of the filing of a complaint which alleges that  a  discriminatory
  boycott or blacklist is occurring.
    (2)  Within  three  days  after  initiating such an investigation, the
  commission shall file a written report with the mayor. The report  shall
  state:
    (a) the allegations contained in the complaint;
    (b)  whether  the  commission  has  reason to believe a discriminatory
  boycott or blacklist is taking place; and
    (c) steps the commission has taken to resolve the dispute.
    (3) If it is stated within the report described in subdivision two  of
  this   section  that  the  commission  has  reason  to  believe  that  a
  discriminatory boycott or blacklist has taken place, within thirty  days
  after filing such report, the commission shall file a second report with
  the mayor and the council. This second report shall contain:
    (a) a brief description of the allegations contained in the complaint;
    (b)  a  determination  of  whether  probable cause exists to believe a
  discriminatory boycott or blacklist is taking place;
    (c) a recitation of the facts that form the basis of the  commission's
  determination of probable cause; and
    (d)  if  the  boycott  or  blacklist  is continuing at the date of the
  report, a description of all actions the commission or other city agency
  has taken or will undertake to resolve the dispute.
    (4) If a finding of probable cause is  not  contained  in  the  report
  required  by  subdivision  three  of  this  section  and  the boycott or
  blacklist continues for more than twenty days subsequent to the report's
  release, then, upon demand of the mayor or council the commission  shall
  update  such report. Report updates shall detail: (a) whether or not the
  commission presently has probable  cause  to  believe  a  discriminatory
  boycott or blacklist is taking place; and
    (b)  all new activity the commission or other city agency has taken or
  will undertake to resolve the dispute.
    (5)  If  the  commission  determines  that  the  disclosure   of   any
  information  in  a report required by this section may interfere with or
  compromise a pending investigation or efforts to resolve the dispute  by
  mediation  or  conciliation,  it  shall  file  the  report  without such
  information and state in  the  report  the  reasons  for  omitting  such
  information.
