The Department is undergoing significant Digital modernisation and making use of technologies such as Artificial Intelligence where it is appropriate to enhance those products and services.

The specific information requested on Artificial Intelligence spend within Digital budgets is not readily available and to provide it would incur disproportionate costs.
