Twitter seeks 8 weeks time to appoint Chief Compliance Officer

 

Twitter on Thursday informed the Delhi High Court that it will make its first compliance report public by July 11 while seeking eight weeks time to appoint a candidate to fill Chief Compliance Officer position.

In the last hearing the Delhi High court had warned Twitter that it cannot take “as long as it wants” in this country to appoint an India-based officer in compliance with India’s new IT rules.

The microblogging platform also told the court that it has appointed an Indian resident as its interim Chief Compliance Officer since July 6. A full-time officer for this role will be appointed in eight weeks, it said.
