A Question

Has anybody ever come across a question where you had to carry holding fuel for DP ops because the weather at the destination was forecast to be below Landing Minima (closed i.e. not Acceptable)?

I've not seen it in my practice exams but one question specifically mentioned that weather was below Alt Minima but not below Landing Minima (no mention of the words Suitable or Acceptable, not that I needed them). The question was straight forward but it got me thinking about that one. According to the Rob Avery book I have the cheat sheet simply says not required for DP so maybe CASA just doesn't ask that question.
