D. but rather ensure that suggestion-maker receives recognition for his contribution.
E. but instead make sure that the suggestion-maker will receive recognition.

Answer A
Choices C,D and E can be eliminated because they break the parallel rule.
"Is not to..... but to" form is needed and theses choices are missing the word "to".

Choice B can be eliminated. "will be receiving" introduces a different tense which doesnt agree with the previous tenses.
ans = a
