__________ your transfer request is concerned, we'll be discussing it at the next meeting.
Options

- BTo begin with
- CBy the way
- DTalking about
Correct answer
A. As far as
Step-by-step solution
The phrase 'is concerned' is commonly paired with 'As far as' to introduce a topic of discussion. The complete expression 'As far as [something] is concerned' means 'regarding [something]' or 'with respect to [something]'.
Substituting the other options results in grammatically incorrect sentences. Therefore, 'As far as' is the most appropriate discourse marker.
