The first time you did them if you didn't mist coat them the paint may not have adhered to the walls properly as it may have been too thick. If this was the case and you say you have removed all the other paint then you just need to put on a mist coat or 2 followed by a couple of coats of the finish you wish to have. If it is the yellow paint that is coming off then it could be that whoever did it the first time did what I have said and not mist coated first. In which case you could have this happening again when you put the next coat on. If this is the case then you will either have to remove all the emulsion or line the walls before you paint.
