However, “I think the executive order really pointed to the fact that … there’s not a clear picture of exactly all of the different things that need to be put in place to fill some of the existing gaps. But there’s also an acknowledgement of the already long-existing framework that covers so much of the activity in this space, and the fact that absence of sufficient compliance with those long-existing obligations still has to be sufficiently prioritized and enforced,” she said.
