Answer:

Select committee

is a small group of people which are gathered from members of parliaments to investigate a specific public issues. (For example : Climate change).

Select committee will be granted with the power to hire experts from relevant fields to help them create a set of legislatures that can tackle the issues.

Joint committee

Is a temporary collaboration that is initiated by different houses in bicameral legislature. IN most cases. These houses usually oppose one another due to their different party affiliation. But when joint committee is formed, they will settle down their difference and make a cooperating effort to tackle a certain problem that worry the public.

standing committee

Standing committee is considered to be more permanent compared to the other two. Rather than specific issues, they have the power to create legislation to address the nations' problems as a whole. (such as influencing the amount of budget that can be used by the government for each programs)
