The statement of the Housing Expediter may be accompanied by such supporting informa- tion as the Housing Expediter deems appropriate. Thereupon, the Emergency Court of Appeals shall have jurisdiction to enter, within sixty days after the date of its receipt of such recommendation or decision from the Housing Expediter (or within such additional period of not more than thirty days as the court may find necessary in exceptional cases), an order approving or disapproving the recom- mendation of the local board or decision of the Housing Expediter. The recommendation, record, and statement of findings of the local board or decision, record, and statement of findings of the Housing Expediter, as the case may be, together with the statement and sup- porting information filed by the Housing Expediter, shall constitute the record before the court.
