It's D. A is incorrect - you probably misheard it? No one says "needless saying" in the situation given above. You can say, however, "the former part of this dissertation is mere needless saying."

I've never heard "needless saying" in that context before. It seems incorrect to me. It is correct to say, however, that for some people, "needless to say" is a needless saying.
