Committee or committee means a group of people assembled for a specific purpose; a group selected to perform a particular service or function--
The committee will meet again next week to discuss the plans for a new school building.
The committee will now put the matter to a vote.
Comity or comity means mutual respect or courtesy, or, of countries, respect for one another's laws--
Comity isn't a mere matter of form, it makes closing a deal much easier.
We have to extradite these people, according to our comity agreement with their country of origin.
Now that you know that, you can say--
"Before we call the committee meeting to order, please remember the importance of comity when speaking to one another."
