The State Examinations Commission has statutory responsibility for operational matters relating to the certificate examinations, including organising the holding of examinations, ensuring the preparation of examination papers and other examination materials, determining procedures in places where examinations are conducted, including the supervision of examinations, and making arrangements for the marking of work presented for examination. In view of this, I have forwarded the Deputy's query to the State Examinations Commission for direct reply to him.
