                    [Summary] => 



President Arroyo has ordered the release of P20 million to subsidize the voluntary retake of nursing licensure examinations for those who passed the tainted June 2006 examinations.


The amount will fund the review to be held in schools to be designated by the Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE) and provide assistance for those who would retake the exams.

There are 17,000 licensed nurses who passed the June 2006 examinations but not all of them are expected to retake the tests.
