This Registration Statement No. 333-12965 (the "Registration
Statement") registered an aggregate of 2,000,000 shares of Common Stock, par
value $.01 (the "Securities"), of EmCare Holdings Inc. (the "Registrant).
On September 10, 1997, the Registrant became a wholly-owned
subsidiary of Laidlaw Inc. following a merger. As a result of the merger, it
is anticipated that the Registrant's Securities will no longer be registered
under the Securities Act of 1934, as amended. Accordingly, the Registrant is
removing the Securities from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended.
