Article summary

The Data (Use and Access) Bill finished its process in the House of Commons on 7 May 2025. The government refused to accept proposed amendments that would address issues relating to AI and copyright, that would seek to increase protection for creatives whose works may be used to train AI models without their permission. The government stated its work in this area was ongoing pending the results of its consultation on copyright and AI that closed on 25 February 2025, and any amendments seeking to reform the law in this area were premature and would result in piecemeal legislation.
