The Annual General Meeting for 2001 of Barclays PLC was held on Monday 9 April
2001 at The Queen Elizabeth II Conference Centre, London.

Sir Peter Middleton chaired the meeting.

The resolutions contained in the notice of the meeting circulated to
shareholders on 7 March 2001 were passed on polls with large majorities:


1.  To receive the Directors' report and accounts for the year ended 31
    December 2000.


2-7 That Sir Brian Jenkins, Stephen Russell, John Stewart, Sir Peter Middleton,
    Christopher Lendrum and Peter Jarvis, retiring Directors, be re-elected
    Directors of the Company.


8.  To re-appoint PricewaterhouseCoopers as auditors and authorise the
    Directors to set their remuneration.


9.  To increase the authorised share capital of the Company to £2,500,000,000
    by the creation of 500,000,000 ordinary shares of £1 each.

10. To renew the Directors' authority to allot 553,000,000 ordinary shares of £
    1 each.  This represents approximately one-third of the issued share
    capital of the Company at the date of signing the Notice of Meeting of the
    Annual General Meeting, i.e. 7 February 2001.

11. To renew the authority given to Directors to allot securities for cash up

    capital on 7 February 2001 other than on a pro rata basis to existing
    shareholders.

12. To amend Article 12 of the Articles of Association so that in future the
    authorities granted in resolutions 10 and 11 can be granted to Directors
    for a period of up to five years without the need to dis-apply the
    provision in Article 12 which previously restricted the period to 15
    months.

13. To authorise the Company until the Annual General Meeting in 2002 to make
    market purchases of up to an aggregate of 249,000,000 of its ordinary
    shares of £1 each (less than 15% of the issued ordinary share capital as at
    7 February 2001), subject to a prescribed maximum price.

14. To adopt new updated Articles of Association to change various references
    from 'the London Stock Exchange' to 'the Financial Services Authority' and
    to facilitate electronic communication with shareholders.
