                                 Trading Update

Public Recruitment Group PLC (the "Group" or "PRG"), the public sector
recruitment and services group specialising in the education, healthcare and
social work sectors, announces a pre-close trading statement ahead of its
preliminary results for the year to 31 December 2006.

The Board is pleased to report that the encouraging performance seen in the
first half of the year has continued in the second half. Organic revenue is
broadly in line with 2005 and the conversion of net fee income to operating
profit has improved during the current year.

In our healthcare division, market share in the locum doctor market continues to
increase with our subsidiary JCJ winning new supply contracts around the
country, despite a declining market.

Revenues in the education and social work divisions are consistent with those
achieved last year. These two divisions are now reporting to one common
management team, in anticipation that the local authorities will also evolve
this way, in response to the requirements of The Children Act 2004.

Whilst the trading environment remains challenging, the outlook for 2007 and
beyond remains positive.

The Group will announce its preliminary results for the year to 31 December 2006
on 2 March 2007.
