C is the correct answer. The Progress theme is being applied here. The scenario describes the team manager identifying an issue with the timescales for the 'marketing materials' work package. To address this, they have brought in additional resources, using their own tolerance levels to take corrective action. This is an example of the Progress theme, which involves monitoring work package status and acting on deviations from the plan. Additional resources have been deployed to get progress back on track.

Change control procedure - capture issue, examine, propose solutions, decide (resolve or escalate to PB) and implement solution (take CORRECTIVE actions).

I believe D might be correct. The manager IDENTIFIED that they wont be ready within the agreed tolerance, that is an issue, not risk. And the issue was managed by a change - so change theme.
