Response to Department for Science, Innovation and Technology AI Growth Lab open call for evidence

In our submission to the Department for Science, Innovation and Technology (DSIT)'s call for evidence, we recognise the value of a collaborative, cross-sector approach to AI regulation, especially given the complex, fragmented regulatory landscape in health and social care. This approach supports coordination, shared learning, and clearer expectations, fostering innovation and public protection.

Such a Lab could create opportunities for sectors to learn from each other, identify emerging risks and good practice, and address systemic issues that individual regulators may miss. This strengthens understanding of risks and opportunities, and supports more preventative, risk-based regulation, as set out by the PSA in Right-touch regulation.
