Campaign grail | Voluntary sector | SocietyGuardian.co.uk: "Brown made it clear in a speech to the National Council for Voluntary Organisations (NCVO) in September that the voluntary sector has a crucial role to play in on citizen engagement. The Office of the Third Sector is committed to consulting on overhauling Charity Commission regulations that can hinder charities in their campaigning role. It is possible that this government enthusiasm for citizen engagement is opportunistic, that by supporting campaigners they can demonstrate popular support for policy reform where it suits them to, and create the 'space for change'. That might be an overtly cynical view. What is certain is that Brown has presented the sector with an unprecedented opportunity."
