To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Innovation, Science and Trade, whether his Department has made an assessment of the potential merits of requiring AI companies to publish their training models.
The Government recognises that greater transparency about how AI developers train their models can support licensing, enforcement and creator control.
Our March report on AI and copyright committed to further work on input transparency. Since then, we have engaged extensively and continue to do so to understand what information is needed, what can feasibly be provided, and discuss best practice.
This will help establish what works and whether there is an appropriate role for government.

To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, what steps his Department is taking to protect national security from potential impacts of inappropriate use of AI.
We are committed to ensuring the UK is prepared for the changes AI will bring.
UK laws protect against AI-driven security risks across many sectors and domains – for example cyber resilience, data protection, online safety, product safety, civil contingencies, and critical national infrastructure sectors. The Department for Business, Innovation, Science & Trade, works alongside the Cabinet Office, Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport and others to anticipate and respond to risks emerging from inappropriate use of AI.
This is informed by technical experts, including in NCSC and AISI, who ensure government understands current and emerging AI risks and works with partners to develop safeguards against them.

To ask the Secretary of State for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport, what steps her Department is taking to protect creative industries from inappropriate use of AI.
This government values human creativity and believes that people should be paid fairly for the work they do. We will establish a new taskforce to put forward proposals for government on best practice on labelling, exploring how it could help inform people’s choices on whether content has been made using AI. We will also set up a consultation into digital replicas. This will seek views on how to address harms where someone’s likeness is replicated without their permission.

To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, with reference to the Answer of 2 September 2025 to Question 73632, whether an evaluation lesson has been undertaken following the use of the emergency alert in England and Wales on 14th August 2026.
To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, with reference to the Answer of 2 September 2025 to Question 73632, whether an evaluation lesson has been undertaken following the use of the emergency alert in England and Wales on 14th August 2026.
The decision on 14th August was made against a backdrop of unprecedented hot and dry conditions, with 43 active fires and 11 major incidents simultaneously impacting emergency services across the UK. We carefully considered whether an alert was appropriate, weighing the significant disruption it would cause against the potential to mitigate the mounting pressure on our fire and rescue services and risk to people’s lives.
We are committed to learning from this experience and are currently reviewing the thresholds and operational protocols for future alerts to ensure they remain a proportionate and effective tool for preserving life.

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, what assessment her department has made of the potential impact of not knowing the medical history of patients who have been adopted on those people.
The government recognises the importance of ensuring that clinicians can take account of the impact of adoption where relevant.
Alongside the government’s apology on 2 July 2026 for historic forced adoption practices in England, the government committed to work with NHS England to explore how patients who wish to do so can have their experience of adoption appropriately recorded in their health record. This, alongside practical tools and guidance to support improved understanding of adoption-related needs, will support clinicians to take this into account in relation to care, family history, and wider support needs. This includes improving how clinicians respond where family medical history is unknown, including through clearer guidance on screening referrals and the use of genetic services where appropriate.

To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Innovation, Science and Trade, with which countries their Department plans to pursue new free trade agreements with.
The UK Trade Strategy, published in June 2025, outlines the Government's priorities for the future of the Free Trade Agreement programme. Most recently, the Government has announced the negotiation of a Digital Trade Agreement with Malaysia. The Government has also launched a public consultation to inform the next phase of deepening the United Kingdom’s trade relationship with four global partners, including through their potential accession to the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership: Indonesia, the Philippines, United Arab Emirates and Uruguay. Where decisions are formally taken to seek further Free Trade Agreements, they will be communicated to the House in the usual way.
That this House condemns Surrey County Council for not being open and transparent regarding its Children's Services cases; and notes that following repeated failures of the County Council’s Children’s Services, the local authority is unable and unwilling to learn lessons about their previous failures which fundamentally undermine public confidence in their continued and future ability to safeguard children.

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what steps her department is taking to improve communication and cooperation with regional support groups for displaced overseas healthcare workers, such as the South East ASC IR partnership.
Home Office officials already regularly engage with stakeholders supporting displaced sponsored care workers. This includes the Regional Partnerships, funded by the Department for Health and Social Care (DHSC), in England and extends to officials in Devolved Governments. UKVI use this network to provide an enhanced service offer to displaced workers matched to pre-assessed ethical care providers who wish to sponsor them. We are engaging with DHSC with on their plans to support those workers who have been subject to revocation action following the cessation of funding at the end of the financial year. For any questions on the Regional Partnerships themselves, I would encourage you to write to DHSC.
