Government Office for Science published AI 2030 Scenarios report including recommendations on dedicated governance structures

On 28 April 2025, the Government Office for Science published the AI 2030 Scenarios report as part of a broader series on Frontier AI: Capabilities and Risks. These guidelines for policymakers discuss the potential need for dedicated governance structures for artificial intelligence. As AI systems become more capable and widely deployed, the report notes that existing regulatory frameworks may face challenges in addressing AI-specific risks. It suggests that policymakers may wish to consider establishing or strengthening specialist AI oversight bodies to support safety evaluations, international coordination, and the provision of technical expertise.
