    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, this is a very serious matter. The Minister mentioned Section 14 of the Central Bank of Kenya Act. That section clearly specifies how the Governor can be removed from office or suspended. The Minister is aware that where there is a specific statute and a general statute like the Economic Crimes Act that applies to all civil servants and there is a conflict, it is the specific Act which carries the day. Could he tell the House why they did not appoint a tribunal? If they did that, the President could have suspended the Governor. Why are they flouting the law? Why did they elect to apply the Economic Crimes Act which does not apply here, instead of the Central Bank of Kenya Act?"
