Report of the Independent Auditor to the members of Jarvis plc   
  
We have audited the group and parent company financial statements (the 
''financial statements'') of Jarvis plc for the year ended 31 March 2009 which 
comprise the group income statement, the group and parent company balance 
sheets, the group cash flow statement, the group statement of recognised income 
and expense and notes 1 to 29 for the group consolidated accounts and notes 1 to 
12 in respect of the parent company accounts. These group financial statements 
have been prepared under the accounting policies set out therein. We have also 
audited the information in the Directors' Remuneration Report that is described 
as having been audited.  
  
This report is made solely to the company's members, as a body, in accordance 
with Section 235 of the Companies Act 1985. Our audit work has been undertaken 
so that we might state to the company's members those matters we are required to 
state to them in an auditor's report and for no other purpose. To the fullest 
extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone 
other than the company and the company's members as a body, for our audit work, 
for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.  
  
Respective Responsibilities of Directors and Auditors  
  
The directors' responsibilities for preparing the Annual Report and the group 
financial statements in accordance with United Kingdom law and International 
Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs) as adopted by the European Union, and for 
preparing the parent company financial statements and the Directors' 
Remuneration Report in accordance with United Kingdom law and Accounting 
Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice) are set out in 
the Statement of Directors' Responsibilities.   
  
Our responsibility is to audit the financial statements and the part of the 
Directors' Remuneration Report to be audited in accordance with relevant legal 
and regulatory requirements and International Standards on Auditing (UK and 
Ireland).  
  
We report to you our opinion as to whether the financial statements give a true 
and fair view and whether the financial statements and the part of the 
Directors' Remuneration Report to be audited have been properly prepared in 
accordance with the Companies Act 1985 and whether, in addition, the group 
financial statements have been properly prepared in accordance with Article 4 of 
the IAS Regulation. We also report to you whether in our opinion the information 
given in the Directors' Report is consistent with the financial statements. The 
information given in the Directors' Report includes that specific information 
presented in the chairman's statement, the chief executive review, the financial 
review, and the operating review that is cross referred from the Business Review 
section of the Directors' Report.  
  
We review whether the Corporate Governance Statement reflects the company's 
compliance with the nine provisions of the 2006 Combined Code specified for our 
review by the Listing Rules of the Financial Services Authority, and we report 
if it does not. We are not required to consider whether the board's statements 
on internal control cover all risks and controls, or form an opinion on the 
effectiveness of the group's corporate governance procedures or its risk and 
control procedures. In addition we report to you if, in our opinion, the company 
has not kept proper accounting records, if we have not received all the 
information and explanations we require for our audit, or if information 
specified by law regarding directors' remuneration and other transactions is not 
disclosed.  
  
We read other information contained in the Annual Report and consider whether it 
is consistent with the audited financial statements. The other information 
comprises only the Directors' Report, the unaudited part of the Directors' 
Remuneration Report, the Chairman's Statement, Chief Executive review, the 
financial review, the operating review, the biographies, the corporate 
governance statement and the corporate social responsibility statement. We 
consider the implications for our report if we become aware of any apparent 
misstatements or material inconsistencies with the financial statements. Our 
responsibilities do not extend to any other information.  
  
Basis of Audit Opinion  
  
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing 
(UK and Ireland) issued by the Auditing Practices Board. An audit includes 
examination, on a test basis, of evidence relevant to the amounts and 
disclosures in the financial statements and the part of the Directors' 
Remuneration Report to be audited. It also includes an assessment of the 
significant estimates and judgments made by the directors in the preparation of 
the financial statements, and of whether the accounting policies are appropriate 
to the group's and company's circumstances, consistently applied and adequately 
disclosed.   
  
We planned and performed our audit so as to obtain all the information and 
explanations which we considered necessary in order to provide us with 
sufficient evidence to give reasonable assurance that the financial statements 
and the part of the Directors' Remuneration Report to be audited are free from 
material misstatement, whether caused by fraud or other irregularity or error. 
In forming our opinion we also evaluated the overall adequacy of the 
presentation of information in the financial statements and the part of the 
Directors' Remuneration Report to be audited.  
  
Opinion  
  
In our opinion:  
  
 
  -   the group financial statements give a true and fair view, in  
      accordance with IFRSs as adopted by the European Union, of    
      the state of the group's affairs as at 31 March 2009 and of   
      its loss for the year then ended;                             
  -   the group financial statements have been properly prepared in 
      accordance with the Companies Act 1985 and Article 4 of the   
      IAS Regulation;                                               
  -   the parent company financial statements give a true and fair  
      view, in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted    
      Accounting Practice, of the state of the parent company's     
      affairs as at 31 March 2009;                                  
  -   the parent company financial statements and the part of the   
      Directors' Remuneration Report to be audited have been        
      properly prepared in accordance with the Companies Act 1985;  
      and                                                           
  -   the information given in the Directors' Report is consistent  
      with the financial statements.

Amalgamation of Accounts

multiple accounts registered in their names should write to the Registrar to 
have their accounts amalgamated.  
  
Gifting Your Shares to Charity  
  
Shareholders who have a small number of shares can often find it uneconomical to 
sell them. An alternative is to consider donating them to the charity ShareGift 
(registered charity 1052686), which collects donations of unwanted shares until 
there are enough to sell and uses the proceeds to support other UK charities. 
Further information can be obtained from the Company's Registrars or from 
ShareGift on 020 7930 3737 or from www.ShareGift.org. There is no implication 
for Capital Gains Tax (no gain or loss) when you donate shares to charity and UK 
taxpayers may be able to claim income tax relief on the value of their 
donation.
