Ministry of Justice UK: AI Action Plan for Justice
Artificial Intelligence (AI) has the potential to transform the justice system in England & Wales and deliver ministerial priorities. AI shows great potential to help deliver swifter, fairer, and more accessible justice for all – reducing court backlogs, increasing prison capacity and improving rehabilitation outcomes as well as victim services. But this opportunity must be seized responsibly, ensuring that public trust, human rights, and the rule of law remain central and AI risks are carefully managed.
This AI Action Plan for Justice sets out the Ministry of Justice’s approach to responsible and proportionate AI adoption across courts, tribunals, prisons, probation and supporting services (referred to here as the justice system).
The Action Plan focuses on three strategic priorities:
📍 Strengthen foundations: enhance AI leadership, governance, ethics, data, digital infrastructure and commercial frameworks. A dedicated Justice AI Unit led by the Chief AI Officer will coordinate the delivery of the Plan, with critical input from the Data Science, Digital and Transformation teams. A cross-departmental AI Steering Group provides oversight and an AI and Data
Ethics Framework, and communications plan will promote transparency and
engagement.
📍Embed AI across the justice system:
UK will deliver more effective services across citizen-facing, operational and
enabling functions alike. By applying a “Scan, Pilot, Scale” approach, UK will
target high-impact use cases. These include: Reducing administrative burden with secure AI productivity tools including search, speech and document processing (e.g. transcription tools that
allow probation officers to focus on higher-value work). Increasing capacity through better scheduling (e.g. prison capacity). Improving access to justice with citizen-facing assistants (e.g. enhancing case handling and service delivery in our call centres). Enabling personalised education and rehabilitation (e.g. tailored training
for our workforce and offenders).
Supporting better decisions through predictive and risk-assessment models (e.g. predicting the risk of violence in custody)
📍 Invest in people and partners: UK will invest in talent, training and proactive workforce planning to accelerate AI adoption.
