{'staff committee': [0, 0, 0, 3], 'committee': [0, 0, 0, 1], 'naval staff': [0, 0, 0, 2], 'chairman': [0, 0, 3, 5], 'army staff': [1, 0, 1, 5], 'air staff': [1, 0, 0, 2], 'member': [22, 5, 20, 36], 'chief': [4, 1, 3, 13], 'chiefs': [0, 0, 0, 4]}

The Chairman of the Chiefs of Staff Committee is the member who has been the longest on the Committee. This means that the person who has served the longest on the Committee will be appointed as the Chairman.

Option 1 states that the Chief of Army Staff is the Chairman. However, this is not correct as the Chairman is not determined by the person holding the position of the Chief of Army Staff.

Option 2 states that the Chief of Naval Staff is the Chairman. This is also incorrect as the Chairman is not determined by the person holding the position of the Chief of Naval Staff.

Option 3 states that the Chief of Air Staff is the Chairman. Similarly, this is not true as the Chairman is not determined by the person holding the position of the Chief of Air Staff.

Therefore, the correct answer is option 4, where the Chairman is determined by the member who has been the longest on the Committee.
