Question

To ask the Leader of the House whether artificial intelligence is used to reply to written parliamentary questions and, if so, what is the extent of this.

All written parliamentary questions are considered on a case by case basis. The Government does not have a specific policy on the use of AI for responding to written parliamentary questions, however staff do have access to AI software tools to support the drafting process. All responses are reviewed by policy officials to ensure accuracy and consistency with government policy, and parliamentary questions are signed off by Ministers.
