My Lords—

My Lords—

My Lords, the tech companies, particularly the social media companies, have argued for a decade that their technology is global and, therefore, that local regulation is not the way to do it. Yet Australia, and now, I believe, this House have realised that local regulation is the only way you get global regulation in the end. Why do we think AI is any different?

I am sorry to interrupt the noble Lord. Before he moves on, I may have misunderstood, but I do not think he addressed whether GBR would be subject to the Subsidy Control Act.

We wait with bated breath.

My Lords, I thank everyone who has contributed to this meaty debate. They included multiple ex-Secretaries of State and Members with private sector, regional and devolved experience. I think there was real unanimity of intent. I also thank the Minister. There was an awful lot in his response, which I...

My Lords, I will speak briefly in support of the amendment from the noble Lord, Lord Clement-Jones, which he so comprehensively set out. I did not mention this at Second Reading because I thought it was so self-evidently sensible that this needed to be fixed. I should know better, having...

My Lords, I rise to introduce a large number of amendments, for which I apologise: Amendments 18 to 23, 25 to 31, 33 to 39, 41 to 47 and 49 and 50.

Full house. Fear not—it is not as complex as it seems. These amendments, which I have introduced, and I am grateful for the support of the noble Baroness, Lady Kidron, and my noble friend Lord Holmes of Richmond, seek to strengthen the staged reporting requirements of the four different groups...

My Lords, I have listened really carefully to the Minister and thank her for her response, but I feel that we just had a completely black and white no, which is extremely disappointing. We have had something almost worse than a black and white no, because if I heard her...

I apologise, I stand to speak to a whole other group of amendments that suffer from the same challenge of needing to be repeated four times, which is why I suggested to the clerks that we degroup them, otherwise we would have got into a real muddle.

I am sorry, it is me again. In a break with tradition, we have only one amendment in this group. That is because this amendment would insert a proposed new clause, as opposed to lots of small changes to existing clauses. Amendment 72 is in my name and, once again,...

It was my suggestion to break up these amendments into different groups, otherwise we would have had about 100 amendments in one group. There is an awful lot of overlap in the discussion on this group in particular and Amendment 17 in the name of my noble friend Lady Neville-Jones....
