Which is grammatically correct, and why?

A) The committee have reached their decision after several hours of debate.
B) The committee has reached its decision after several hours of debate.
C) The committee have reached its decision after several hours of debate.
D) The committee has reached their decision after several hours of debate.

B) The committee has reached its decision after several hours of debate.

Explanation:

“Committee” is a collective noun that refers to a single unit acting as one body, so it takes a singular verb (“has”) and a singular pronoun (“its”).

Sentence A uses a plural verb (“have”) and plural pronoun (“their”), which would only be correct in British English when emphasizing individuals within the group—but since this sentence clearly refers to a unified action (reaching a decision), singular agreement is required.

Sentences C and D mix singular and plural agreement, which is always incorrect.
