Contribution

I thank the noble Lord for that. It is not only in the Netherlands but in other countries in Europe—for example, Estonia as well. Let us not forget that the UK Government are committed to ensuring that our adoption of AI across the public sector is ethical, safe and responsible. The Government Digital Service suite of responsible data and AI tools, such as the data and AI ethics framework, helps teams across government to build and display AI in the right way. Our ambition is really for AI to benefit working people directly by improving their health, care and education, as well as how citizens interact with the Government, while opening up new opportunities, as the noble Lord mentioned, rather than just threatening our traditional patterns of work.
