ATT Aerodynamic Buffs: Ideal boundary layer characteristics at the stall?

So I'm studying for ATPL systems, and have split answers in a question. Any advice on the correct answer and/or the "CASA correct" answer? Here's the question:

In order to delay flow separation on an aerofoil at the stall, the characteristics of the boundary layer should ideally be:

a. laminar due to reduced surface friction
b. turbulent due to the higher velocities at the wing surface
