In the first of these reports, the FCC says there was "no significant delay" in the FCC's response to questions about the speed test data. However, the report also includes questions about Ajit Pai's record on net neutrality and how much Pai has changed since taking over as FCC chairman. (The FCC's website lists Pai's net neutrality record as "a net neutrality plan approved by the U.S. Congress in 2015 and adopted in 2015.)

Pai's office did not respond to Ars' request for comment. The FCC did not return a request for comment, but its spokesman did say that Pai "has never taken the actions that are required of any federal agency."

The FCC's second report on the speed test includes questions about how early Pai could have implemented net neutrality policies to improve the speed of the internet. In the report, the FCC says, Pai would have implemented policies to improve the speed of the internet in December. That is the same month the FCC announced a plan to roll out more broadband services to more cities in 2017.

"This report does not detail specific policies that would have been required of the FCC, but is focused on the implementation of the policy," Pai said in a statement. "As many of you have pointed out, many of me believe that this is an important step to ensure that consumers have access to the internet without harming their quality of life."

Pai's office did not respond to Ars' request for comment.
