In his speech, Me Paul Eronce Villard, the Commissioner of the Government of Port-au-Prince warned all those who plan to disturb the passing of these official tests that the law, without appeal, will crack down on them. "Nothing will be able to justify that people, prevent these young people from composing" explaining "At least three vehicles of the public prosecutor's office will furrow, permanently, all the zones, where the tests will be held". In addition, a police back-up vehicle will also be placed at the entrance of each examination center, to ensure safety.

According to officials of the Ministry, prosecutors in other jurisdictions in the country will apply the same provisions to ensure that everything goes well during these days of exams.

In response, the radical opposition rejected the call for a truce from the Ministry during the exam period.
