Explanation

The communications management plan should be reviewed by the business analyst (who owns the plan), the project manager (who oversees overall project communications), and the sponsor (who represents executive and business stakeholder interests and can ensure key members are appropriately included). Including the sponsor ensures the plan reflects business priorities and that no key stakeholders are inadvertently excluded. Option A (including all stakeholders) is too broad and impractical for plan review. Option C omits the sponsor, who has a vested interest in communication effectiveness. Option D is too narrow, limiting review to only the BA.
