I do believe that for governments, 5 million pounds etc. might be a comparatively small amount and putting that within open source / (supply-chain security innovation in this case) might be the right way to go.
I also believe that in a similar fashion, Open source, say libreoffice devs etc should also be funded by govt's.
A bit of the reason behind supply chain attacks can be that the developers/maintainers are underfunded too.
