It is wrong to think that the influence of the Justice Ministry on the proposal for a roundtable is simply conditional, because it is a significant strategic advantage.
The fact that the Justice Ministry sets its research priorities for 2025 creates a framework where the proposal from the Legal Services Board regarding legal AI gains a certain edge.
Such convergence is not a coincidence but a maneuver that gives the initiative a dominant position, making it difficult to ignore.
For example, if the Ministry has already invested political capital in access to justice via AI, any aligned initiative benefits from an institutional weight that budget constraints alone cannot easily leave behind.
