1) Don't make this a fixed cost (tax), make it a variable cost (outgoing - possibly a tax deductible one).

2) Government will pay to create a training and certification system.

3) Government passes much stronger law for security due diligence.

4) Companies are compelled to have people who secure their electronic systems.

5) Private Sector SC or DV cleared Security Specialists fill in the gap.

It is going to be much much easier to train geeks to fight e-crime effectively, than to teach police to geek effectively.

Bish-bosh. Job's a good'un.

Small government input and running cost. Commerce shoulders running cost (scalable and tax deductible). Police have good intelligence, and get to do Policing. UK IT professionals doing un-outsourcable high value security work.

For my next trick...
