Correct option is C)
The basic rule of Subject-Verb agreement is that a singular subject takes a singular verb while a plural subject takes a plural verb. The verb must always agree with the subject of a sentence.
Option C is correct. A collective noun takes a singular verb when the collection is thought of as one whole; plural verb when the individuals of which it is composed are thought of. In the given sentence, the Committee is thought of as consisting of individual members (as indicated in the brackets). Thus, it requires a plural verb, namely, "are".
