MPs to quiz Palantir and NHS England on technology in the NHS
The Science, Innovation and Technology Committee will question Palantir and NHS England on public service digital transformation in the next session of its inquiry into the Digital Centre of Government.
In the first panel, the cross-party committee will quiz the head of Palantir’s UK and Europe operations, Louis Mosley, on the use of its technology in the NHS and the wider public sector. MPs may investigate Palantir’s federated data platform, wider public sector procurement and the digital and technical capability of the public sector.

Questions could also explore Palantir’s work as a defence technology provider and the UK’s hoped-for technology partnership with the US.
MPs will then question NHS England representatives about the shift from analogue to digital detailed in the 10-year plan, previous NHS attempts at digital transformation and the barriers to the adoption of innovative technology across the NHS. Members may also explore current challenges to the use of the foresight generative AI tool, steps the NHS is taking to ensure digital inclusion and the impact of the spending review on its digital transformation agenda.
