Explanation:
This is an example of a preventive control as the problem is not yet occurred, only it is detected and are accounted for. By removing the scope items from the project work, the project manager is aiming to remove the added risk events, hence it is a preventive control. Preventive control is a type of internal control that is used to avoid undesirable events, errors and other occurrences, which an organization has determined could have a negative material effect on a process or end product.
Incorrect Answers:
A: Detective controls simply detect and report on the occurrence of problems. They identify specific symptoms to potential problems.
C: Corrective actions are steps to bring the future performance of the project work in line with the project management plan. These controls make effort to reduce the impact of a threat from problems discovered by detective controls. They first identify the cause of the problems, then take corrective measures and modify the systems to minimize the future occurrences of the problem. Hence an incident should take place before corrective controls come in action.
D: Scope creep refers to small undocumented changes to the project scope.

The manage stakeholder expectations process can create change requests for the project, which can cause new risk events to enter into the project.
Change requests are requests to expand or reduce the project scope, modify policies, processes, plans, or procedures, modify costs or budgets or revise schedules. These requests for a change can be direct or indirect, externally or internally initiated, and legally or contractually imposed or optional. A Project Manager needs to ensure that only formally documented requested changes are processed and only approved change requests are implemented.

Risk cannot be removed completely from the enterprise; it can only be reduced to a level that an organization is willing to accept. Risk management programs are hence designed to accomplish the task of reducing risks.
Incorrect Answers:
B: Depending on the risk preference of an enterprise, it may or may not choose to pursue risk mitigation to the point at which benefit equals or exceeds the expense. Hence this is not the primary objective of designing the risk management program.
C: Reducing risk to a level too small to measure is not practical and is often cost-prohibitive.
D: Reducing risks to a specific return ignores the qualitative aspects of the risk which should also be considered.
