faire le suivi...

Explanation:
Sous toutes réserves, bien sûr car l'anglais n'est pas fluide ni précisément clair...

"To review, analyze, recommend and/or action matters referred to the committee name by XXX."
D'abord il faut être concis. Je comprends la phrase comme:
"To review, analyze, recommend and/or **TAKE ON** action matters referred to the committee name by XXX.
OR
To review, analyze, recommend and/or **FOLLOW UP** on action matters referred to the committee name by XXX.

This is of course an educated guess. I'd propose then the following:

>> Réviser, analyser, faire des recommandations et/ou le suivi sur les questions que XXX aura référées au comité.
