Quality issues and the resignation of the CEO could be the tip of the iceberg

Mr James Hussey, son of Marmaduke Hussey, Baron Hussey of North Bradley (former chairman of the Board of Governors at the BBC), and Lady Susan Hussey, woman of the bedchamber to HRH Queen Elizabeth II (one can assume that Hussey jnr. Knows which fork to use!), last week left the company in an apparent last ditch attempt to save a contract with the Reserve Bank of India, worth a reported 25% of the company’s entire profits! De La Rue has been extremely tight-lipped (printing money is a tight-lipped business!) over the events surrounding this move.
