In 2020, CSPL published a report considering whether the then regulatory and governance framework for AI was sufficient to ensure that public standards would continue to be upheld as AI is adopted more widely across the public sector.

Since the report was published, the Committee has retained a watching brief on AI.

In July 2023, the then Chair wrote to the Minister for AI and Intellectual Property, regulators, and public bodies asking for an update on progress against our recommendations.

This follow up report provides a summary of what stakeholders told us they have done in response to our recommendations; this report is not an assessment of the current AI policy framework.

We have published separately on our website the responses we received and the date received. Most of the responses were received between August and December 2023.
