Answer

My officials are currently considering the AI landscape in the North and will bring forward policy recommendations that focus on the impact on the workforce and business support to encourage AI as a tool for growth.

The impact of AI will be felt across society and, other departments will wish to consider their own remits and how AI can contribute to the improved delivery of public services.
