Upon conviction, they are liable to a fine not exceeding one thousand currency points (equivalent to 20 million Ugandan Shillings) or imprisonment for up to five years, or both. This law covers both physical and electronic forms of examination materials, including their transmission.

Candidates are scheduled to sit for their PLE exams starting on Wednesday, November 6, 2024.
