Your addition to John Laing plc has been removed, as it appears to have added copyrighted material to Wikipedia without permission from the copyright holder. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other websites or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites or publications as a source of information, but not as a source of article content such as sentences or images.

Your text includes almost word-for-word copies of the second and third paragraphs in About John Laing. Please find third party reliable sources that describe this company instead. - Pointillist (talk) 14:09, 28 February 2011 (UTC)
