A. Clarify the current work progress, causes for delays, existing risks, and planned corrective actions should be the first step for the project manager in responding to the stakeholder's question. By doing this, the project manager can provide the stakeholder with a clear picture of the current situation and the reasons for the delays. The project manager can also communicate the planned corrective actions and mitigation measures to recover the delays. This information can help the stakeholder to understand the project status and to make informed decisions about the project.

Why is it not C? Is it because the contract is being developed?
