D&C 81
The Lord revealed -
"...hearken to the calling wherewith you are called, even to be a high priest in my church, and a counselor unto my servant Joseph Smith, Jun.;
2 Unto whom I have given the keys of the kingdom, which belong always unto the Presidency of the High Priesthood..." (Doctrine and Covenants 81:1–2)
Even though the president of a quorum or presidency holds priesthood keys, I believe then the presidency as a quorum hold priesthood keys even though the counselors do not hold keys individually. I don't remember a written declaration coming only from the president of the Church. It is usually comes from the First Presidency.
