INTRODUCTION

     This statement amends the Schedule 13D (the "Schedule 13D") filed on
August 4, 2000 by Shamrock Holdings of California, Inc., a California
corporation ("SHOC"), as amended by Amendment No. 1 filed by SHOC and
Trefoil International III, SPRL, a Belgian corporation ("Trefoil SPRL"), on
October 11, 2000 ("Amendment No. 1," and together with the Schedule 13D,
the "Amended Schedule 13D"). The securities to which this statement relates
are Ordinary Shares (the "Ordinary Shares"), of Pacific Dunlop Limited, an
Australian corporation (the "Company"). Capitalized terms used and not
defined in this Amendment No. 2 shall have the meanings set forth in the
Amended Schedule 13D. Except as specifically provided herein, this
Amendment No. 2 does not modify any of the information previously reported
on the Amended Schedule 13D.

1.  ITEM 3 OF THE AMENDED SCHEDULE 13D IS HEREBY AMENDED TO ADD THE
FOLLOWING INFORMATION:

     ITEM 3.  SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION.
              -------------------------------------------------

     The funds used by Trefoil SPRL to purchase the additional 300,000
Ordinary Shares were derived from Trefoil SPRL's working capital, and from
margin borrowings pursuant to the Trefoil SPRL Margin Lending Facility
Agreement. All of these 300,000 Ordinary Shares were pledged as security
for Trefoil SPRL's borrowings pursuant to the Trefoil SPRL Margin Lending
Facility Agreement.

2.  ITEM 5 OF THE AMENDED SCHEDULE 13D IS HEREBY AMENDED TO ADD THE
FOLLOWING INFORMATION:

     ITEM 5.  INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.
              ------------------------------------

     On November 13, 2000, the Company issued a press release announcing
that, as a result of its off-market equal access tender buy-back (the
"Buy-Back") which closed November 10, 2000, it had repurchased 101,992,570
Ordinary Shares. As a direct result of the Buy-Back, and due to no action
on the part of either of the Reporting Persons, the Reporting Persons'
beneficial ownership of the issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares
increased from 8.93% to 9.91%.

     On November 22, 2000, Trefoil SPRL purchased 200,000 Ordinary Shares
on the open market on the Australian Stock Exchange at AUD $1.53 per
Ordinary Share, excluding brokerage commissions and stamp duties. On
November 23, 2000, Trefoil SPRL purchased an additional 100,000 Ordinary
Shares on the open market on the Australian Stock Exchange at AUD $1.517
per Ordinary Share, excluding brokerage commissions and stamp duties. As a
result of these transactions, the number of Ordinary Shares owned by
Trefoil SPRL was increased to 61,378,260 Ordinary Shares, and the Reporting
Persons' beneficial ownership of the issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares
increased to 9.94%. The preceding calculations are based on publicly
available information which indicates that the number of outstanding
Ordinary Shares of the Company is 927,464,509.
