This has been posted on the forum before but not all new members will have read it, and it's way too long to post the whole article so am just posting the link as it's always worth a read:

If Enid had the time, it would be nice to see this article updated with all of the accounts brought together up to date, to include the last couple of years 'no details at all' accounts.

Surely someone somewhere is going to take notice sooner or later, or is that just wishful thinking?

Seems they forgot about this one from 2009 Clarence!

Their spokesman Mr Mitchell said: ‘People will be able to see that every penny of the money they so generously donated has been spent properly in the hunt to find Madeleine.’

For what it’s worth (nothing at all), the Confirmation Statement showing no changes, seemingly backdated to the technical due date of 15^th May, was eventually received and has been posted by Companies House on 9^th July.

For a completely worthless document, it almost seems that they post things late just to keep the wind-up going. There are no penalties for filing this document late.

The 'open and honest' accounts that let people 'see that every penny of the money they so generously donated has been spent properly in the hunt to find Madeleine', although in accordance with relaxed regulatory procedures, show virtually bugger all of any worth, and then this Confirmation Statement, which is purely a paper exercise, is filed late for no obvious good reason, other than shoddy accounting procedures.
