Facebook Inc co-founder Mark Zuckerberg, who has so far refused to appear before UK lawmakers over the Cambridge Analytica scandal, may indirectly face questions from London on May 22 after parliamentarians appealed to their counterparts in Brussels for help. 

Damian Collins, chairman of the House of Commons Digital, Culture, Media and Sport Committee, copied a series of questions for the company to members of the European Parliament who will quiz Zuckerberg in a live-streamed session on May 22.
