How incredibly, incredibly short-sighted. Having spent a small amount of time working in the government contracting field (UK and now over here in the US), the amount needed for IWS could be saved pretty much instantly by simply tightening up the contracting procurement procedure. Even just a little tiny teeny little bit. The thing is surely this: if we (the UK/Soton/whatever) don't do IWS, someone else will, and soon.
