AI Action Plan Explorer

The Ministry of Justice (MOJ) is at the forefront of responsible AI adoption across government. One year on from publishing the AI Action Plan for Justice, this explorer highlights progress against our ambitions. We are committed to being transparent about how we use AI and will continue to work with industry, academia, civil society and the wider public sector to realise its benefits safely and responsibly.

This explorer will not be updated in real-time. It represents a snapshot of our Year One progress (30 July 2025 – 30 July 2026) against the AI Action Plan for Justice, accurate as of 24 September 2026.

In Year One, we committed to establishing strong foundations, building capability and delivering early wins.

Explore our selection of case studies to discover how AI is being applied across the justice system.

In Year Two, our priority is to scale what works to improve outcomes more widely across the justice system. All future work will be taken forward in line with appropriate engagement and consultation requirements, including with trade unions where relevant.

Year 1 progress

We have provided all staff with access to a secure enterprise version of Copilot Chat and have continued to expand secure enterprise AI capability across the department through Microsoft 365 Copilot and ChatGPT Enterprise rollouts, supporting a range of productivity, research and knowledge work use cases. Alongside deployment, we have invested in guidance, training and evaluation to support safe and responsible adoption and to better understand how AI can deliver value across different business areas.

Year 2 priorities

In Year 2, we will continue to refine our enterprise AI offering, using evidence from evaluations and business demand to inform future deployment. We will focus on embedding AI into day-to-day ways of working, ensuring the right AI tools are available for the right use cases, while maintaining strong security, governance and value for money.
