Who do the royals use to handle their funeral arrangements?

According to the Paget Report Levertons & Sons are the independent funeral directors appointed to the Royal Family.

Clive Leverton, a co-Director of the firm, travelled to Paris with two embalmers to assist in the repatriation of Diana's body.

"There are plans in place for funerals of any member of the Royal Family...
In 1997 Operation... was utilised to repatriate the Princess of Wales. Within this plan Lavertons staff would travel on a separate aircraft to any member of the Royal Family, and arrive at the destination airfield in advance of the coffin."

Paget Report, ch 9, p550-551
