The committee could assuredly still request Bannon to discuss event before Jan 6 2020 while ignoring the time before his tenure. Still making it illegal for Bannon refuse the request.

Conversations with the president after his tenure were not off limit.

Released on 10/8/2021
And even if the committee was "inclined to accept the unsupported premise" that executive privilege reaches communications between Bannon and Trump, the letter notes that Bannon "does not enjoy any form of absolute immunity from testifying or producing documents in response to a Congressional subpoena."

January 6 committee rejects Bannon's executive privilege claim

Followed up by President Biden saying on 10/26/2021
He Disallowed executive privilege from the previous president being allowed.
This is Biden’s right
”The power of the Executive Branch is vested in the President of the United States“ (note not from Wikipedia)

Yes I know the committee has disallowed the EP invocation.

That's...the problem. There's no basis for this in history or law.
