Correct answer: A — Named authorised professionals may supply or administer specified medicines within the PGD criteria
A patient group direction is a legal framework allowing specified healthcare professionals to supply or administer listed medicines to patients who meet defined criteria. The practitioner must be authorised, trained, and work within the PGD. It does not remove the need for consent, assessment, and record keeping.
