The article is correct and the British delegation would also be correct if
you are referring to a group of representatives.
I would change it to read
"Has the British delegation arrived yet?" I would use
already only in questions to show surprise.
Hope this helps. |

Yet is commonly used for questions, but the meaning is more or less the same as already, in this case . |
