the department of commerce and consumer affairs, the attorney general, and any other governmental entity with
authority to enforce this chapter. These records shall be retained for a period of two years after the date of

permits fictitious names to be used by employees or agents, each fictitious name shall be traceable to only
one specific telephone solicitor, employee or agent. Where one or more telephone solicitors is employed by or
