Is it possible for the members of the Project Board to provide guidance to the Project Manager outside the standard documentation/reporting procedures specified in PRINCE2?
  1. No. Communication from the Project Board must always occur at predefined points.
  2. Yes, but only in response to a PRINCE2 report from the Project Manager.
  3. Yes, but only if the Project Manager specifically requests guidance.
  4. Yes. They are allowed to give ad-hoc direction any time they like.
Explanation
Answer: D - Yes, they are allowed to give ad-hoc direction any time they like.

Key takeaway: The ability of the Project Board to give ad-hoc direction is somewhat of a catch-all to ensure there is an open communication channel to the Project Manager at all times. Usually they will give ad-hoc advice in response to a request for advice from the Project Manager, a raised exception, or a report of some description. It can happen, however, that there are corporate issues that need to be communicated to the Project Manager, in which case the trigger for the ad-hoc advice will be external to the project.
