Why did MOE change the criteria for JAE Appeal, without explicitly telling students?

The 2016 JAE Appeal has just started. However if some of you have noticed, there is a new policy that one must meet the COP before being eligible to appeal. Anyone who did not meet the COP would have just wasted paper and their energy as they would have no possibility of entering the school they appealed to if they were unable to meet the COP. Why did MOE do this? Without announcing this to the students, they were met with nothing but disappointment, when they were told that they were unable to get into the school definitely after submitting the application form.
  This small sentence was small and unnoticeable amongst the large paragraph on the MOE JAE Website, but caused so much disappointment to students who eyed for another school that they preferred, including me. It is understandable that the change in ministers may have caused this policy to be made, but the inability of the MOE to inform students directly was very uncalled for. Is the new operational system of the MOE causing this inability? I think that the minister should make an effort to change this lacking areas, or else it would cause much problems in the education system just by inability to conveying these small but important information. These are not like in an army where the military must infer the in charge, but students who examinations are so important that they one must EXPLICITLY inform the students of these changes. These shortcoming must stop as it affect the future of students indirectly!
  If this is the attitude of the minister no longer priorities the needs of the students as first, then I will definitely not vote for him in the upcoming Elections where I am able to vote in if he is in my constituency. Unfortunately, he is not, and he will not lose one precious vote to the opposition.
