A. ask Mr. Hollembeak for further details about his findings and report
So far in the discussion Mr. Hollembeak has only said the conclusion of the report, but not any details about his findings. If Mrs. Louis wanted to challenge the validity of the report, she would first need him to give further details. This would lay the groundwork for her challenge. Reading the entire report aloud may be lengthy and rather tedious for this proceeding. Since the report has been submitted anyone can read it in its entirety at any time. Option C is also not correct because it would not be useful at this point to change the discussion topic.
Mrs. Louis could ask Mr.Hollembeak for <em>further details about his findings and report.</em>
The discussion <em>aims to get the thruth</em> about a possible leak of information by not properly encrypted files. Mr. Hollembeak defends himself stating that concerning his knowledge and responsabilities he is innocent of any negligence for his department's security protocol was up to date.
If Mrs. Louis wants to be an effective participant in the discussion she could ask Mr.Hollembeak further details about his findings and report in order to discover any contradictions in his statement and then feel free to move to another topic.
