Defence: Artificial Intelligence
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, with reference to paragraph 39 of the Defence Investment Plan, published on 30 June 2026, what is his planned timetable for setting out a clear policy framework governing the delivery of Dependable AI.
Answered by Luke Pollard
The Defence Strategic Approach to AI is currently being developed and will be finalised by the end of 2026. As set out in the Defence Investment Plan, this will be accompanied by clear policy frameworks governing the delivery of 'Dependable AI' and the 'Responsible Use of AI' across Defence. This activity is already under way, and will build on the MOD's existing policy, governance and assurance arrangements - notably the Dependable AI JSP 936.
