This is a contest of influence: the idea that the priorities of the Ministry of Justice "empower" a roundtable on AI is pure speculation, unless the Legal Services Board sees a benefit in aligning.
The Board has the opportunity to win the narrative by defining the terms of the debate on AI itself, even if it leaves behind the concerns of the Ministry.
If the Board chooses to focus on the international competitiveness of legal AI rather than access to justice, the priorities of the Ministry will be just a background noise.
Victory will go to whoever manages to impose their dominant vision of the future of law.
