Which activity is responsible for updating the stage plan with actual during Controlling a Stage?
The activity responsible for updating the stage plan with actuals during Controlling a Stage is 'Review work package status'. This is because reviewing work packages involves checking the progress made and recording actual progress against planned progress. This information is used to update the stage plan accurately.

Ref 17.4.2 (last bullet)
One of the key activities in the Controlling a Stage process is to review the status of the work packages . Work packages are the smallest units of work in PRINCE2, and they are assigned to team members to complete. By reviewing the status of the work packages, the project manager can gather information on the actual progress made and update the stage plan accordingly.
17.4.2 Review work package status Update the stage plan for the current management stage with actuals to date, forecasts and adjustments.
Coulc be A or B BUT Both activities can involve updating the Stage Plan, but "Review the Stage Status" has the broader and ultimate responsibility for ensuring that the Stage Plan is fully up-to-date, making it the correct answer in most PRINCE2 contexts. A Review of a work package MAY casue an update to the stage plan
