Explanation:

Correct answer is (a). The fragment A of the sentence is erroneous. The error is in the usage of perfect participle. Here, past participle 'provided' must be used instead of 'providing'.
Note: The perfect participle indicates completed action. You form the perfect participle by putting the present participle having in front of the past participle 'provided'.
The correct sentence would therefore be, "With the intervening period having provided a wealth of data points and policy developments, including the momentous roll-out of the Goods and Services Tax, there was a clear need to update and refresh outcomes and forecasts."
Option A is hence the correct answer.
