Wong asks who the committee should ask about the creation and management of the Signal group if Rowland and the chief counsel will not appear; Smith-Cruz says she is not sure but suggests the contact at Intergovernmental Affairs could help find someone who can answer.

Phil Wong

All right.

Phil Wong

With Roland not here, and who exactly are we supposed to ask?

Phil Wong

I'm at this question for the panel.

Phil Wong

Who exactly are we supposed to ask about the creation, operation, and management of the signal group in question?

Phil Wong

If the person identified is running it, nor the chief counsel who has direct oversight over these matters will not appear before the committee.

Phil Wong

Where can we get answers?

Member of the Public - Shanta Smith-Cruz

Thank you for the question.

Member of the Public - Shanta Smith-Cruz

I'm not entirely sure, but I would say potentially your contact at Intergovernmental Affairs could support getting you to someone who can answer your question.

Phil Wong

It's unfortunate that we have a packed room and the person that has answers to the room is not here.

Phil Wong

I'll save my next set of questions for round two, Chair.

Phil Wong

Thank you.
