                                 Connaught plc
                          ("Connaught" or the "Group")

                               OFT Sector Review

Connaught notes today's announcement by the Office of Fair Trading (OFT)
regarding the release of statements of objections to 112 companies in the
construction sector.

Connaught was contacted by the OFT in 2007 in relation to a small number of
tenders in one of its subsidiary companies dating back to 2000. The tenders
represent a very small proportion of the bidding activity of the Group during
that period.

The Group has strict guidelines and controls in place relating to its tendering
process to ensure full compliance with competition law, and is cooperating fully
with the OFT.
