Arroyo to be asked to order probe vs nursing test leakage
CONCERNED nursing graduates and “leakage” complainants are planning to ask President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo to create an independent fact-finding body to probe allegations of cheating during the June 11 and 12 licensure exams.
In a statement emailed Sun.Star, the complainants also expressed disappointment with the Professional Regulatory Commission “for its failure to act on said complaint expeditiously”, fearing that “the PRC is doing a whitewash.”
“The PRC’s sluggish action and its apparently deceitful and misleading statements give enough reason for the complainants and the intervenors to claim that the PRC’s actions are tainted with intentions to railroad and whitewash,” it stressed.
The statement also claimed that “it appears that the actual number of examination questions leaked is far more than was initially thought and that the damage caused by the leakage to the nursing profession is even more extensive than what was presumed. But it seems easy to determine who among the BON members is/are responsible for the leakage by simply identifying the member/s whose questions came out in the materials evidencing leakage.”
“What is taking the PRC so long to pinpoint the persons liable? If the Board of Nursing (BoN) has already been tarnished with such an appalling anomaly, what is the assurance that previous nursing board examinees have not been victims of the same damage-causing irregularity? And if we have a PRC that is as futile as that which we now deal with, what is the assurance that it can preclude issues of the same nature from possibly tainting the other board examinations,”? the complainants claimed.
“This issue deserves to be considered as a concern of national importance as it affects the interest of the general public,” the statement added, as it called on concerned parties to join the rally set on July 11 from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m.
“Notwithstanding attempts to suppress the complaint, the individuals and groups concerned are determined to continue their quest for truth and justice. The nursing profession (should) remain to be a noble profession; it is not for sale!” it added. (CGCruz)
