Explanation

In formal British English, 'inquiry' refers to a formal investigation while 'enquiry' refers to a general question. For a scandal investigation, 'inquiry' is the correct term. American English uses 'inquiry' for both. The other options are wrong - 'query' is too minor, 'acquire' doesn't fit the context.
