Please, explain. Why is be made known correct in B?
This is a type of sentence where one person or body expects/desires/orders/requests/etc. to do something and the correct form of the sentence is then THAT+Infinitive form of the verb without TO.
E.g. In the option B, it's actually *TO BE made known* but it is expected that you know it.
C/D is not correct since *should* indicates only moral obligation and court of law cannot impose a moral obligation.
E ...they is not clear. also *THAT* is missing
A i just can't explain why A is wrong but i know that it is wrong.
