The RBZ has appointed a new Monetary Policy Committee after Eddie Cross announced his resignation from the committee embarrassing the central bank. The RBZ was forced to issue a questionable statement in which they claimed that the MPC had been been dissolved weeks earlier before Mr Cross’s announcement as it no longer didn’t have enough members.
