Anyone can throw some light on the 3:2 divide, i understand that is used for explaining the essential clause but the usage of for is still not out of place, is it? Will look at will become future tense and making becomes present perfect, so with that the correct answer is D but i feel there is a catch with that and for.
Cheers

I'm glad to help.
The White House, meanwhile, has set up its own interagency panel
that would look at how to protect consumers while also make United States companies more competitive internationally
A. that would look at how to protect consumers
while also makeB. that will look at
the protection of consumers while also making
C.
for looking at how to protect consumers while also making
D. that will look at how to protect consumers while also making ==>
CORRECTE.
for looking at protecting consumers and also making
First split: "make" VS "making"After "while" you have two options:
(1) "while" is subordinating conjunction, thus after "while" you must use a complete sentence. "While also make...." is short of subject, so this part cannot be a complete sentence. ==> A is out.
(2) if the part after while has the
same subject, you can use "while + V-ing". For example: he does his job while talking on the phone.
B, C, D, E which say "while also making" ==> remain.
Second split: "that" vs "for""For" is incorrect preposition, the intended meaning is about the "plan" - the White house has set up a panel to look at...... Thus, "for" which means "because" is incorrect. ==> C, E are out.
"That" is correct modifier. B, D remain.
Third split: "look at the protection" vs "look at how to protect".Clearly, the intended meaning is about the "plan" of the White house to protect consumers. The white house does not look at "the protection OF customers". B changes meaning.
Only D left. ==> CORRECT.
Hope it's clear.
