During the 'create the project plan' activity as part of the initiation stage, the project manager identifies several threats to the project timescales. These threats relate to stage 3 products. Therefore, the project manager decides to wait until the end of stage 2 to assess the risks to the project plan.
Is this an appropriate application of the plans theme, and why?

• A.Yes, because detailed planning of stage 3 should take place after completion of the stage 2 products.
• B.Yes, because risk planning should take place in the stage plan before the risks occur, not in the project plan.
• C.No, because the risks inherent in the project plan should be assessed, and the plan modified to manage them.
• D.No, because the risk actions to manage project-level threats should be recorded in the risk register.
