(Bloomberg) -- Lawmakers from Britain and other nations tore
into a Facebook Inc. executive after the company’s decision not to send founder
and CEO Mark Zuckerberg to testify at a hearing.
The Department of
Digital, Culture, Media and Sport tweeted an image of an empty chair
captioned “Where is Mark Zuckerberg?,” after Facebook sent its vice president
of policy solutions Richard Allan instead of its top executive.
While Zuckerberg
answered questions during U.S. congressional hearings in April, he has
repeatedly refused to appear before U.K. lawmakers. The social network’s chief
technology officer, Mike Schroepfer, was sent to answer questions in April.
