The correct answer is: E. No error
The sentence is grammatically correct. The subject and verb agree, and the sentence is complete.
A. The five-member committee were
This is the subject of the sentence. It is a plural noun, so the verb must be plural as well. The correct verb form is “were.”
B. of the view that the present service conditions
This is a prepositional phrase that modifies the verb “were.” It tells us what the committee’s view was. The preposition “of” is followed by the noun “view,” which is followed by the clause “that the present service conditions are quite good.”
C. of the employees of this company
This is a prepositional phrase that modifies the noun “service conditions.” It tells us who the service conditions are for. The preposition “of” is followed by the noun “employees,” which is followed by the noun “company.”
D. are quite good
This is the predicate of the sentence. It tells us what the committee’s view was. The verb “are” is in the plural form to agree with the subject “committee.” The adjective “quite good” describes the noun “service conditions.”
E. No error
