Why this is on the board
The Netherlands has no minister for digital affairs; AI and digitalisation policy comes from a small directorate of around 200 people. In your second six months as a trainee you don't observe but handle your own files, and whoever learns to write the rules here will later help decide how that technology is constrained in the Netherlands.

What do you make of this?
The board is still in beta, so this is exactly the moment to say what you think. A vacancy we have missed, a judgement you do not share, something that does not work — all of it helps.
