PORT-OF-SPAIN, Trinidad (CMC):

Officials of the Barbados-based Caribbean Examination Council (CXC) arrived here on Monday to hold an urgent meeting with Education Minister Esther Le Gendre over the leaking of this year's Caribbean Advanced Proficiency Examinations papers in this country.

CXC had earlier announced that it was cancelling all CAPE examinations in Trinidad and Tobago.

Le Gendre said she supported the decision by CXC to suspend all the examinations and said that the threat to its integrity was sufficient to warrant the move.
