Exam PRINCE2-Practitioner topic 5 question 40 discussion

Actual exam question from PRINCE2's PRINCE2-Practitioner

Question #: 40
Topic #: 5

The project is in stage 3. Zero time tolerance has been given for this stage. When checking progress, the project manager noticed that the checkpoint report from the external supplier of the 'e-learning course' is late. As work package progress information is missing, the project manager has decided to raise an exception report.
Is this an appropriate action, and why?

A. Yes, because an exception report should be used to request guidance on how this situation should be handled.
B. Yes, because there is zero time tolerance for this stage the checkpoint report must be delivered on time.
C. No, because the project manager should check the operations and maintenance interfaces in the work package first.
D. No, because the team plan should be discussed with the supplier to check whether work will be completed on time.

Selected Answer: D

It states that the checkpoint report is late, not that the product delivery. The project manager just did not receive information. This is not a situation to raise an exception report. I think D is the correct answer. Also, the same question is in Edition 6 and the answer there is D.
