To ask the Secretary of State for Science, Innovation and Technology, whether his Department has made an estimate of the potential value to the economy of licensing agreements between AI developers and the UK's creative industries for copyright protected works.

The Government recognises that licensing is an important tool to ensure rights holders are remunerated appropriately. We have made no specific estimate at this stage of the potential economic value of licensing agreements between AI developers and rights holders.

The Government will launch a consultation soon to seek views and welcome evidence on a package of measures to address copyright and AI issues, including the value of licensing.
