    A The committees take the heat up the issues and deal with it Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B The committees takes the heated issues and deal with them Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C The committees take the heat off the issues and deal with them Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D The committees heat up the issue and deal with them Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E No improvement required Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    The phrasal verb ‘heat up’ is inappropriate here. ‘take the heat off’ is correct. In B, ‘takes’ is incorrect. In D, ‘them’ is incorrect because the subject is ‘issue’. The committees take the heat off the issues and deal with them in a mature manner by listening to all stakeholders.
