the parliamentary governance of cybersecurity matters should be a top priority of the legal measures strategy. For example, countries may consider forming joint-committees with a focus on cybersecurity matters. Thereafter, Parliament may pass a Cybersecurity Act to define the responsibilities of the joint cybersecurity committee. 9.1.3 Law Enforcement Governance Framework The legal measures strategy should also consider creating a governance structure or strategic framework to coordinate law enforcement, investigatory, policy and regulatory activities against cybercrime. Efficient law enforcement helps prevent, deter, respond to and supports the prosecution of the illicit use of ICTs. The governance structure should: 9.1.4  Define the roles of investigatory and law enforcement organisations;  Link online and offline law enforcement action against all types of crime;  Provide a solid and globally harmonised approach for law enforcement activities;  Provide law enforcement agencies the requisite information and resources to gain and maintain the skills to combat cybercrime effectively; and  Create a framework for dialogue and coordination of law enforcement agencies at local, regional and international levels. Global Fight against Cybercrime Nations should participate in efforts to develop and harmonise legal measures globally. The participation could be part of crosscutting international cooperation efforts. Countries may also consider incorporating legal measures into a cohesive international strategy for 49 cyberspace. For example, the US strategy provides a roadmap for coordinating all the international cyberspace policy activities of the government, private sector, civil society and end-users. To build confidence in the use of cyberspace, the US aims to:  Participate fully in international cybercrime policy development;  Improve cooperation through the harmonisation of cybercrime laws; and  Focus cybercrime laws on combating illicit use rather than restricting access. As ever, all nations have a sovereign right to choose the most efficacious approach. 49 US Strategy is at http://www.whitehouse.gov/sites/default/files/rss_viewer/international_strategy_for_cyberspace.pdf 50
