Macfarlane Group PLC confirms that the ordinary resolution to approve the
disposal of the business, assets and certain liabilities of its Plastics
Division to Tyco Plastics Limited was unanimously approved at its
Extraordinary General Meeting earlier today.


Because of the interruption to air travel from the US, the scheduled
completion of 14 September 2001 has been delayed until Wednesday 19 September
2001 to allow representatives of Tyco time to travel to the UK for formal
completion of the transaction.
