I propose to take Questions Nos. 134 and 135 together.

The State Examinations Commission has statutory responsibility for operational matters relating to the holding of the examinations and ensuring the preparation of examination papers and other examination materials. I understand that the detailed specifications for assessment are currently being finalised by the Commission and will issue very shortly to schools. I have forwarded your query to the State Examinations Commission for direct reply to you.
