Explanation

The scenario describes a task that involves gathering information about a minor change to an existing system. The task requires the BA to understand the current state of the system and the requirements for the enhancement. Therefore, the BA should review the functional design specification of the existing system before the meeting, as this document provides the details of the system's features, functions, and interfaces. Reviewing the functional design specification would help the BA to identify the scope of the change, the impact on the system, and the potential risks and issues.
