In my opinion, this dataset could and should be labeled CC-0 or released under a permissive license such as CC-by which would make it compatible with Wikimedia projects such as Wikimedia Commons. In return, Wikimedians could offer the UK government to help annotate, curate or otherwise improve metadata, making this dataset more valuable for training.
I wonder whether it would be more beneficial to tag "restricted by copyright" material instead, and leave everything else to be a fair game, for AI, free knowledge community, or anybody else.
The labels should be on the copyrighted stuff and ideally cost some money to renew every year.
I think we might not want to have a clearly marked public domain/CC-0 zoo with a very high fence around it.
