"Key points made to national and local government by frontline organisations:
• Involve the voluntary and community sector in policy making not just delivery
• Make the commissioning process less bureaucratic
• Recognise that volunteers require support and don't come 'free'
• Enable long-term unemployed to volunteer for more than 16 hours a week
• Speed up CRB checks
• Recognise that payment by results is not always practicable - prevention cannot be measured
• Recognise that charities must be business-like
• Recognise that stability of funding is essential in this period of transition"
