Question to the Department for Science, Innovation & Technology:

To ask His Majesty's Government what steps they will take to balance AI innovation with copyright protection for UK creators when reviewing copyright rules.

Our copyright regime must deliver for British people and businesses. This means helping creative industries to thrive while unlocking the extraordinary potential of AI.

We have consulted on a set of options and continue to seek views on how best to meet our objectives on AI and copyright from stakeholders and experts, including through the technical working groups and Parliamentary working groups.

The Government will publish a report on copyright and artificial intelligence by 18 March. This report will set out the evidence and views we have gathered and our next steps.
