234. To ask the Minister for Education and Skills if his attention has been drawn to the 2013 UK A level examination results were notified to students within 24 hours of the 2013 leaving certificate examination results being notified to students; that all rechecks in the UK were completed by end of August 2013; if he will explain the reason for the delay in the rechecks for students of the leaving certificate which were still not out one month later; if he will explain when the 2013 rechecks will be notified to students who sat the leaving certificate; if he will further explain the reason it takes more than twice the length of time as in the UK; the steps he will take to prevent such delays in the future as it is affecting students and college places; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

The State Examinations Commission has statutory responsibility for operational matters relating to the certificate examinations. In view of this I have forwarded your query to the State Examinations Commission for direct reply to you.
