     This Amendment No. 1 (this "Amendment") amends and supplements the
Statement on Schedule 13D, dated December 4, 2001 and filed on December 14, 2001
(the "Original Schedule 13D") relating to the common stock, par value $0.00001
per share (the "Common Stock"), of Laidlaw Global Corporation, a Delaware
corporation (the "Issuer").  Mr. Randal J. Kirk, a citizen of the United States
("Mr. Kirk"), and Third Security, LLC, a Virginia limited liability company
("Third Security" and, together with Mr. Kirk, the "Reporting Persons"), are
filing this Amendment to update the information in the Original Schedule 13D
with respect to the beneficial ownership of shares of Common Stock by the
Reporting Persons.  As described in this statement, Mr. Kirk is joining Third
Security in filing this Amendment because, as the sole member of Third Security,
Mr. Kirk may have been deemed to indirectly beneficially own the shares of
Common Stock that were directly beneficially owned by Third Security.

Item 5.  Interest in Securities of the Issuer.
         ------------------------------------

     Item 5(c) of the Original Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented
as follows:

     "On December 21, 2001, Third Security exercised its put option under the
Call and Put Option Agreement to put $300,000, or 1,609,442 shares, of common
stock of the Issuer owned by Third Security to the Issuer in exchange for
increasing the outstanding principal balance on the Note issued to Third
Security by the Issuer on December 4, 2001 from $1,500,000 to $1,800,000.

     On December 21, 2001, Third Security entered into a Stock Purchase
Agreement with the Issuer pursuant to which the Issuer agreed to sell to a
wholly owned subsidiary of Third Security all of the issued and outstanding
shares of H&R Acquisition Corp., a New York corporation ("H&R Acquisition"),
owned by Laidlaw Holdings, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Issuer.  Third
Security acquired the Issuer's shares of H&R Acquisition as of December 26,
2001, and as part of such closing, agreed to terminate the LOI.  As a result,
Third Security no longer beneficially owns any shares of Common Stock of the
Issuer."

     Item 5(e) of the Original Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented
as follows:

     "The Reporting Persons, collectively as a group and each of them
individually, ceased to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of the
outstanding shares of Common Stock on December 26, 2001."

Item 7.  Material to be Filed as Exhibits.
         --------------------------------

     The following document is filed as an exhibit hereto and is incorporated
herein by reference:

     Exhibit 99.1  Joint Filing Agreement, dated as of December 14, 2001, by and

                   December 4, 2001, filed by the Reporting Persons with the
                   Securities and Exchange Commission on December 14, 2001 and
