If you don't know the answer to an important question, please ask someone. Conduct some meaningful research. Seek out those who did the job before you for advice. Do not make up information, yes me to death or say you'll look into it and then not. That does not make you look like you know what you are doing. In the end, it makes you look like a fool, and it can have some serious consequences for innocent people.
I always told my students that good students don't always know the right answers; good students know how to ask good questions.
The same applies to colleagues and supervisors...Grrr.
