    "content": "KACC and his two deputies, the position of my Ministry and myself is very clear: His Excellency the President has not violated any law. He is entitled to do what he did. The law that we passed in this House is very clear. It has a section and a schedule that is clear. The method of appointment is clearly stated and requires the Advisory Board to make recommendations for Parliament to approve and the President to appoint. But for purposes of re-appointment, if somebody wants to amend Regulation 3(2), they can do so. I hear that there are allegations that it is subsidiary legislation; it is not. It is part of the law. It is a clear schedule. It is where the terms of reference and the actual criteria of appointment are stated and it is also where the period of appointment and re-appointment are stated. The words appearing in that schedule are that any person who has served as a Director or Deputy can be re-appointed. So, it is very clear and I am satisfied. I speak with firmness and authority that the President has not violated any law."
