The department may make such additional investigation as it may deem necessary, and shall make such decision on such application as in its opinion is justified and in conformity with the provisions of this part. Applicants or recipients affected by such decisions of the department shall be notified of such decision in writing, and shall, upon request, be given reasonable notice and opportunity for a fair hearing by the department.
