28/09/2009 PROJECT ALPHA 2009 LIMITED

Intresting is the "Project alpha 2009 LIMITED" which is not listed on Dun and Bradstreet or companies house, dissolved or otherwise, so was the royal mint only incorporated in 2009?

in http://www.london-gazette.co.uk/issues/822246/supplements/91/page.pdf there is a reference under CERTIFICATES OF INCORPORATION - CHANGES OF NAME (CONT'D)

PROJECT ALPHA 2009 LIMITED/THE ROYAL MINT LIMITED 06964873 28/09/2009, but prior to 2009 what was "Project alpha 2009 LIMITED" and what is "Project Alpha" as its been called the royal mint since i was a child.

Do we find this strange

[ellsbells]

yes. a change from Project Alpha to the royal mint does seem a tad odd to me too..unless it was called that before it got set up properly,,have done a quick web search, couldn't find anything helpful

[freewomantrish]

I cant find anything else either but intrestingly http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Royal_Mint

[url]The Royal Mint of the United Kingdom (previously the principal mint of the Kingdom of England) is the body permitted to manufacture, or mint, coins in the United Kingdom. The Mint originated over 1,100 years ago, but has functioned since 1975 as a Trading Fund, operating in much the same way as a government-owned company.[1] It now has executive agency status, and is currently undergoing the process of being converted into a Government-owned business. The Royal Mint as a body reports to HM Treasury, though departmental day-to-day responsibilities are handled by the Shareholder Executive.[/url]

[harry tuttle]

Following the money always seems to lead back to companies operating as Trading Funds. The rules that these operate by appear to allow more "flexibility" in their accounting.

Coincidence?
