The State Examinations Commission has statutory responsibility for operational matters relating to the certificate examinations. 

The State Examinations Commission operates a scheme of Reasonable Accommodations in the Certificate Examinations. Full details of the scheme are available from their website:

In view of this I have forwarded this query to the State Examinations Commission for direct reply to the Deputy.
