At such hearing, or such independent examination or investigation as the commissioner may make, the commissioner shall examine into the merits of the application and if he determines that the application is made in good faith and to grant the application would not be detrimental to the best interests of the State association and its members; then the commissioner shall:
(a) If the application is for information, grant the application in whole or in part, and impose such terms and conditions as he shall deem necessary or proper to protect the best interest of the State association and its members, or
(b) If the application is to enable the applicant to communicate with other members of the State association, order the State association to prepare and mail the communication or communications, in whole or in part, on the condition that the applicant shall first pay to the State association all of the costs and expenses of such preparation and mailing.
Nothing herein shall be construed to give the commissioner the power to order a State association to disclose a list of its members to any applicant.
