It said investigations were ongoing into examination irregularity cases detected during and after the conduct of the examination.

"For a quick resolution of malpractice cases, the Council appeals to affected school authorities and candidates to respond with dispatch to its invitation," the statement said.

"Candidates are informed that their refusal to honour such invitations shall not impede the Council from making a final determination on the cases in question.
