delete from 'but notes that' to end, and add 'calls attention to the letter sent by Richard Burge, Chief Executive of the Countryside Alliance, to all MPs, welcomes its reiteration of its longstanding repudiation of all that British National Party stands for, notes its assurance that prior to the Liberty and Livelihood March on 22nd September it was made clear that BNP representatives would not be welcome at the march, further notes the fact, confirmed by the BNP website, that march stewards took action to prevent the distribution of BNP promotional literature, and records its regret that these unfounded allegations have appeared publicly in this form to defame a legitimate organisation and its campaign.'
