                               Taylor Woodrow plc

                                 AGM Statement

Iain Napier, Chief Executive of Taylor Woodrow, will make the following comments
at today's AGM:

'In the UK, we have experienced increases in reservations per site per week,
along with an improvement in cancellation rates. We continue to expect modest
growth in unit completions for the full year. However, as we indicated at our
Preliminary Results Announcement, our site opening schedule will be more
weighted towards the second half.

Our record forward sales position, allied to our proven land development skills,
gives us confidence in our ability to grow 2006 profits from our North American
operations. Despite the softening in certain of our North American markets 
compared with the exceptional growth that they saw in 2005, we continue to 
anticipate good increases in completions, particularly in the second half.

Spain and Construction remain on course to deliver stable performance in 2006.

Overall, the outlook for 2006 remains in line with our expectations.'


                                     -ends-
