defer to Explanation: Without having more context, to me this reflects the second meaning of "defer (to)" (see Merriam-Webster entry, intransitive verb): "To submit to another's wishes, opinion, or governance usually through deference or respect." In other words, the communication people will need to speak with the VD, who is in a higher position than they are, and "hand over" the issue to him or her.
