v.
Dick L. ROTTMAN, Commissioner of Insurance, State of Nevada, Insurance Division, Department of Commerce, State of Nevada, Respondent.
No. 10288.

OPINION
PER CURIAM:
This is an appeal from a district court judgment affirming a decision of the State of Nevada Division of Insurance. The district court concluded that the administrative hearing officer had properly determined that the investment portfolio of Sierra Life Insurance Company (hereinafter Sierra Life) failed to comply with the statutory requirements of NRS 680A.120. Therefore, the company was precluded from doing any insurance business in Nevada until all of its "statutory deficiencies" were corrected.
Sierra Life, an Idaho company, is a life and disability insurer and was licensed in Nevada as a foreign insurer. On March 3, 1975, Sierra Life filed its annual financial statement with the State of Nevada Division of Insurance, and the Division issued the company a Certificate of Authority permitting Sierra Life to continue to transact business in Nevada. A subsequent review of the company's financial statement revealed that the company did not meet the capital and surplus requirements of NRS 680A.120.[1] Accordingly, the Division, pursuant to NRS 680A.190(1), summarily revoked Sierra Life's Certificate of Authority.[2] Thereafter, an administrative hearing was conducted, at the conclusion of which the Division ordered that Sierra Life would not receive a Certificate of Authority until it corrected its specified "statutory deficiencies."
Sierra Life then sought review of the Division's order in the district court. The district court affirmed the order and this appeal followed.
Appellant contends: (1) since its Certificate of Authority was summarily revoked prior to a hearing on the matter, it was denied protections afforded by statute as well as due process of law, and (2) there was insufficient evidence produced at the administrative hearing to support the hearing officer's findings.
1. There is some disparity between the Administrative Procedure Act, NRS 233B.020, which requires the agency to provide notice and an opportunity to show compliance to the licensee, and NRS 680A.190, which gives the Commissioner of Insurance the authority to summarily revoke a Certificate of Authority. However, it is an accepted rule of statutory construction that a provision which specifically applies to a given situation will take precedence over one that applies only generally. *58 W.R. Co. v. City of Reno, 63 Nev. 330, 172 P.2d 158 (1946). Thus, NRS 680A.190 is controlling. Furthermore, where, as here, an emergency situation exists and the action was taken to protect the public against economic injury, due process does not require a prior hearing. Cf. Fuentes v. Shevin, 407 U.S. 67, 92 S.Ct. 1983, 32 L.Ed.2d 556 (1972); Bell v. Burson, 402 U.S. 535, 91 S.Ct. 1586, 29 L.Ed.2d 90 (1971); Fahey v. Mallonee, 332 U.S. 245, 67 S.Ct. 1552, 91 L.Ed. 2030 (1947).
2. In reviewing the decision of the Insurance Division, this court is limited to the same scope of review as the district court. "It is the function of this court as well as the lower court to review the evidence presented to the board to determine if the board's decision was supported by the evidence, and to ascertain whether that body acted arbitrarily, capriciously or contrary to the law." Miller v. West, 88 Nev. 105, 108, 493 P.2d 1332, 1334 (1972), cert. denied, 409 U.S. 966, 93 S.Ct. 294, 34 L.Ed.2d 231 (1972). After reviewing the record and briefs on file herein, we are constrained to find that the Division's determination was proper.
Appellant's other contentions are without merit. Accordingly, we affirm.
