Victoria Collins

Liberal Democrat — Harpenden and Berkhamsted

Speaking in the House of Commons on 12 February 2025

Debate

Access to Digital Services: North-east

Contribution

Digital services for small businesses are important across the country—north-east, south-east or wherever you are, Mr Speaker. The latest data shows, however, that only around 15% of UK small and medium-sized enterprises use AI, which is well behind other countries, such as Denmark and Finland. Will the Minister commit to publishing a detailed adoption road map that covers, for example, essential upskilling, data centre capacity and tech vouchers, so that small businesses can deploy AI without being locked out by cost and complexity?
