What is the word c'tee?

What is this word that I have been seeing frequently: "c'tee"? Here are some examples:

Ramelton Fever Hospital C'tee meeting 1905http://www.askaboutireland.ie/reading-room/history-heritage/heritage-towns/the-heritage-towns-of-don/ramelton/ramelton-fever-hospital-c-1/

From the context the word seems to mean either a [potitical] investigation or a [government] minister. I cannot find any English-English or English-Hebrew dictionary definitions, though. Using Google Translate I cannot find the word in French, German, nor any other obvious European language. What is it, exactly?

Thanks.
