Question
11. What progress his Department has made on utilising AI for innovation in legal services.
Answer
The Ministry of Justice has made significant progress on the responsible utilisation of AI in innovation within the legal services sector. I will offer two examples: first, our launch of the legal services advisory AI growth lab, which brings together Government, regulators and innovators to accelerate responsible AI adoption in legal services; secondly, our commitment to continue to fund LawtechUK, so that we can accelerate the adoption of AI usage across the country. That is what we mean by growth in every postcode.20% vibes
Verdict: AMBER (70/100)
The reply directly addresses the question about progress on AI for innovation in legal services. It names a specific mechanism, the legal services advisory AI growth lab, and a concrete funding commitment to LawtechUK. It opens by describing progress as significant but does not set out outcomes or evidence to support that description, so a reader may want more detail on what has actually been achieved.
