I vaguely recall something about requesting a compliance review from the chief legal officer, but I think that comes later in the process.

I feel like contacting the legislature could be important too, but it might not be the very first step. Inventory sounds more logical.

This is a tricky one. I was tempted by option A at first, but I think that's more of an after-the-fact approach. Developing that inventory of applicable laws and regs seems like the smart first step to lay the groundwork. I'll mark that one down.

Option C is the way to go here. You need to establish what the relevant laws and regulations are before you can even begin to assess compliance. Reviewing legal actions or contacting the legislature seems like it would come later in the process.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. I'm debating between options C and D. Developing an inventory of laws and regulations or requesting a compliance review from the legal officer. I'll have to think this through carefully.

This is a tricky one. There are a lot of technical terms and acronyms that I'm not super familiar with. I'll do my best to apply my general knowledge of 5G, but I may need to make an educated guess on a couple of these.

Option A is a bit reactive, don't you think? I'd rather be proactive and just get the full picture of what we need to comply with.

That's true. Once you have the inventory, then you can consult with the agency's legal officer for a compliance review.
