An application for a certificate shall include the proposed disclosure statement required under N.H. Rev. Stat. § 420-D:4 and in addition to any other state or federal licensure or certification which may be required, a statement indicating that all of the requirements under this chapter have been met. The commissioner shall take prompt action on requests for a certificate and shall, within a reasonable time, issue a certificate or a written rejection. If he rejects an application, he may do so outright or state the conditions which must be met before a certificate shall be issued. The applicant may request reconsideration and shall be granted a hearing in accordance with rules adopted by the commissioner. Certificates issued under this section shall continue in effect until revoked by the commissioner or until sale or transfer of management control to another owner or provider.
