✓ Correct answer: A. Nearer the current expiry dateWhen periodic training is completed more than 12 months before the expiry of the current card, the new DQC is not issued immediately. Instead, it is issued nearer to the expiry date of the current card to ensure the driver receives it just before the new validity period begins.
