Haley Stevens: “We have been in contact with the Department of Justice [DOJ] and have been advised informally the DOJ would not object…”

On the recordJuly 17, 1996
We have been in contact with the Department of Justice [DOJ] and have been advised informally the DOJ would not object to enforcing a subpoena issued by the commission. In fact, they have been operating under the assumption that they would be called upon to enforce such a subpoena. There are many other Government bodies which use DOJ to enforce subpoenas and they are fully staffed to handle such requests.
