Accompanying the orders, the Director of the Bureau issued a statement and invited interested parties to submit comments to inform the Bureau's inquiry. The statement and request for comment was published in the Federal Register on November 5, 2021, in a document titled, “Notice and Request for Comment Regarding the CFPB's Inquiry into Big Tech Payment Platforms.” The Bureau has determined that it is appropriate to re-open the docket for 30 days from Federal Register publication and add two questions.
