Ms Siobhán Cummiskey:

On the cross-checking discussed in the "Dispatches" programme, I wish to explain how this works. There are pages that have a large number of followers or a lot of traffic to them. We would apply what is known as a cross-check to those pages. This means that before a page is taken down, it is reviewed again to ensure the correct decision is being made. This does not mean that any page receives differential or preferential treatment. We are agnostic as to what those pages are and of what they consist. If they do not violate our policies and they have a large volume of traffic to them they will undergo a cross-check, which means they are checked twice before they are removed. The "Britain First" page was removed by us last April because it continuously violated our community standards. Everyone is subject to those community standards.
