Local Government: Artificial Intelligence
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, what role the Artificial Intelligence Directorate plays in supporting the digital transformation of local government services.
Answered by Jim McMahon
MHCLG’s Artificial Intelligence Directorate supports local government to harness the power of artificial intelligence, data analytics and other digital innovations so that their services are more responsive to the needs of their communities, provide better value for money and are secure. The directorate includes the Local Digital team, which has been working with local government since 2018 to improve digital transformation and cyber resilience across local government.
My officials are working closely with local government and key partners across government on this work including with the Department for Science, Innovation and Technology.
