In case of a Natural Disaster, taking the decision about who must receive the benefits of a donation is "a locus of authority".
<u>Option:</u> D
<u>Explanation:</u>
A locus of authority arises when questions are raised about who is accountable or under which jurisdiction anything falls. In the scenario of some health, law or environmental (natural disaster) emergency the central or state governments are responsible for releasing funds to rescue the region by providing basic needs like food, medical aids, etc.
This phase is very important for the head of nation because allocating fund is easy but in right hands is trick, so the authority to whom fund is handover for further processing via right channel and to targeted audience is uttermost priority, also in time.
