The State Examinations Commission has statutory responsibility for operational matters relating to the certificate examinations. However, it would not be appropriate under Data Protection legislation to provide information of the type requested. Personal information must be stored securely, not supplied to a third party, and used only for the purpose for which it was gathered. Use of local newspapers, radio and internet might enable the parties concerned to get in touch.
