Best Answer

The Royal Mint commissions the notes to be printed by secure printers and they are distributed by the Bank of England to the 'clearing' HSBC, Barclays, LloydsTSB and NatWest who put them into circulation either over the counter or through ATM machines. Old notes are received over the counter by the clearing banks and returned to the Bank of England to be shredded and burned.
