Simple one. Took 47 sec.
Since 1992 in the beginning indicates a present perfect tense. Eliminate A, B, and E.
Allow A to be B is a correct idiom. Subjunctive form is never used with verbs advise, allow, forbid, persuade and want. These verbs are always followed by preposition to. Eliminate C.
Ans. D
