Facebook this week suspended the firm, which worked for Donald Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign, after it emerged it had not deleted information about Facebook users.
In a blog post, the social network said Dr Kogan had violated its rules by passing on user data to a third party, and that both he and Cambridge Analytica had failed to delete the information despite providing assurances they had done so.
In his statement Mr Collins wrote that Facebook had failed to adequately cooperate with DCMS, by deliberately understating the risks of companies acquiring and keeping user data, failing to properly answer questions from the committee, and creating a “false reassurance” of “robust” privacy policies.
“Someone has to take responsibility for this,” he wrote. “It’s time for Mark Zuckerberg to stop hiding behind his Facebook page.”
Representatives in the US congress have also called for further regulation of Facebook and some have called for Mr Zuckerberg to appear before a senate committee.
In response to the allegations on Saturday, Democratic senator Amy Klobuchar said it was “clear these platforms can’t police themselves”.
