Interpreting user inquiry

I’m interpreting the user's question about whether officials need to provide an explanation. It feels ambiguous and lacks specific context, as it could relate to various topics like policies, regulations, or events. I should ask some clarifying questions to get more context.

I want to respond concisely and outline when an official explanation is necessary, touching on aspects like accountability, public interest, and legal requirements. I should also offer assistance in drafting a statement if needed.Asking clarifying questions

I need to ask specific questions about the user's situation. For example, which "official" they're referring to, like a government agency or company, and what incident has occurred. I'll also want to know about any stakeholders, risks, policies, or deadlines involved.

Next, I can create a decision tree to evaluate whether an official explanation is needed. The points should cover legal obligations, contracts, public impact, stakeholder questions, and the completeness of evidence.

If the user gives me a scenario, I can help draft a statement too!
