Hackers will get it and china will get it and we will be less safe. That leads me to a question about the use of encryption by the fbi. Are you encrypting all of your your agents,l of and personnel, and payroll, and systems . Data. We use encryption on a significant amount of data. Id like to follow up with that because i was stunned that the office of personnel did not have that important data encrypted. The federal government should protect itself by encrypting this data. We know that were being hacked constantly by state actors and the enemies of our country and im sure they would love to get data about the f. B. I. I look forward to hearing a greater details on them. I yield back, mr. Chairman. Recognize the gentleman from california mr. Issa for five minutes. Thank you, mr. Chairman.

As the chairman argued when we had this debate in 1999, only y allowing the use of strong encryption not only domestically but internationally as well can we hope to make the internet a safe and secure environment. I agree with that sentiment and you have made some of the public statements that i hope you can help us to reconcile that view with your call for special access. And, finally, because rigorous oversight is necessary for public trust, i hope that you will commit today to full compliance with the Inspector General act. For the past five years the f. B. I. Has resisted the clear mandate of that law. The Inspector General of the department of justice is to have timely access to every carry t he requires to out his duties. Noncompliance has real consequences. This committee waited until february of this year to receive a report about the f. B. I

Director comey we are trying to focus on some of the predators who are focusing on this violence.
