C might be correct: p115 - If current polices are insufficient to meet the business need, the business analyst identifies the changes necessary for the desired future state. Policies are a common source of constraints on a solution or on the solution space. Business policies may mandate what solutions can be implemented given certain levels of approval, the process for obtaining approval, and the necessary criteria a proposed solution must meet in order to receive funding. In some instances, a change to an existing policy may open up alternative solutions that would not otherwise be considered.

D seems correct. Refer BABOK 6.2.4.7 If current polices are insufficient to meet the business need, the business analyst identifies the changes necessary for the desired future state. So, business analyst needs to identify changes in policies that help achieve the desired value and to change these policies, he/she needs to seek approval on changes.
