S.S.E.E. EXAMINATION
Commenting on the statement by the three Church Leaders, a Government
spokesman said that the Government fully supported their stand. In
confirming that preliminary discussions had been held with the Church
Leadors on the pay issue, the Government spokesman said that the Government
was not prepared to continue with the discussions unless the boycott was
renounced and the S.S.E.E. held in proper conditions. "The children's
interests in this matter must be paramount," he said, "the future education
of some 85,000 children could be at stake. It is therefore vitally
important to their interest that the examination should be held in
proper conditions."
