Change Authority
Why it's wrong here

Why this is correct
Within the PRINCE2 project management team structure, the Project Manager role is explicitly defined as a core management layer responsible for day-to-day management, planning, and control on behalf of the Project Board. This satisfies the stem’s requirement for a role that is part of the project management team, as distinct from the directing or supporting levels.
