Rodney Erdey states that he faxed the 10-G report to the Ethics Board on November 28, 2016 prior to the deadline. However, he states that he later discovered that the document was incorrectly inserted into the fax machine and the pages came through as blank. He stated that his secretary was using an unfamiliar facsimile machine set up in their temporary location, because the normal machine and office was inundated by August, 2016 flood waters.
