Question to the Department for Science, Innovation & Technology:

To ask the Secretary of State for Science, Innovation and Technology, what meetings he has had with the AI industry since 5 July 2024.

We are committed to building an AI sector that can scale and win globally, ensuring global AI companies want to call the UK home, and boosting the responsible adoption of AI across all parts of the economy. The AI Opportunities Action Plan sets out how we will achieve our AI ambitions.

The AI Opportunities Action Plan, which was developed by Matt Clifford, has been informed by a series of external roundtables with experts from across the AI ecosystem, including civil society, academia, investors, and industry. All external meetings with Ministers are listed on the gov.uk website: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/ministerial-quarterly-transparency-return-2023-2024
