Solution

The correct option is D Put off
The sentence implies that the time or date of the decision cannot be changed to make it happen later than originally planned, especially because of a problem. The appropriate term is "put off". Hence, Option C is correct. The rest of the options do not express this meaning, hence incorrect.
