Abstract
Data science and artificial intelligence (AI) are increasingly used in public health surveillance, triage, diagnostics, and service delivery, while legal and audit controls often lag behind deployment. This paper integrates the third wave of digital era governance (DEG3) with corporate governance mechanisms to frame public health AI as auditable decision infrastructure. Using a structured review and qualitative documentary analysis of public records from 12 jurisdictions between 2016 and 2024, the study identifies recurring failures in senior oversight, contracting transparency, audit rights, model documentation, monitoring and redress. Findings show that capability-first deployments scale faster than accountability mechanisms, whereas pooled standards, auditable procurement and independent assurance reduce repeated failures. The paper proposes a corporate-governance-informed control architecture for lawful, auditable and rights-based scaling of public health AI.
The paper designs the Governance to Evidence Responsible AI Framework, which contains six governance control domains: mandate and ownership, data and fairness, model validation, decision orchestration, human accountability and continuous assurance.

The rapid diffusion of artificial intelligence (AI) across organisational and societal settings has heightened concerns about accountability, transparency, and ethical oversight. Existing governance mechanisms, including regulation and principle-based ethics frameworks, often struggle to address the scale, opacity, and...
The rapid integration of artificial intelligence into corporate decision-making processes has generated significant governance challenges that existing legal frameworks are ill equipped to address. As business enterprises increasingly rely upon algorithmic systems for strategic planning, risk assessment, and operationa...

Background AI is entering clinical care, disease surveillance, and health-data systems faster than governance frameworks can accommodate. Stakes for public health systems include algorithmic safety in diagnosis and triage, data interoperability, and workforce capacity to supervise AI tools safely. Saudi Arabia has buil...
The findings demonstrate that the adoption of responsible AI cannot be achieved through technological means alone but also requires a commitment to comprehensive governance mechanisms, and the sequential interaction and interdependence of governance factors reduce operational and societal risks, increase transparency a...
