After the general election, we need to see progress in the 50 or so largest towns and cities not already covered. These should include (although not exclusively) Brighton, Bristol, Cambridge, Carlisle, Clydebank, Dundee, Gloucester, Liverpool, Merthyr Tydfil, Swindon. Committees should also be a possibility in Cornwall, Cumbria and Kent.

The establishment of local PCC’s can provide a focus for initial work around the Charter, then become the driving force for future work.  In the process of establishing a steering group for the campaign, it is important to remember the breadth of the Charter.  Your steering group should reflect this breadth, with the aim being to draw in all significant local union branches, campaigns and community groups.  However the Charter is primarily a campaigning movement aimed outwards so you should not spend months attempting to get every relevant organisation together, drawing together a broadly representative selection of organisations should be sufficient initially.

If the steering group itself is slightly unwieldy, you will be able to deal with this by establishing a co-ordinating group, executive or another mechanism for carrying out the work.  The main thing is to ensure that the steering group itself is broad and representative, with local groups feeling the People's Charter really is their campaign.
