I thank all of the witnesses for their presentations today, which were really insightful. I have a particular interest in this area as the Labour Party spokesperson on disability. What they say is quite worrying. AI is not neutral, as we know, and it can enforce existing biases and structural inequalities in society.

Co-creation is a huge element to guarding against that. Do the witnesses have any other recommendations on how we can guard against this and ensure that AI can improve the lives of people with disabilities as opposed to reinforcing structural inequalities? Are there positives that we can use, or good examples of international best practice?
