Extract from Article 15 TP and WG Chair responsibilities

The WG Chair is responsible for coordination of the overall management of the technical work within the WG.
The Chair has an overall responsibility to ensure that the activities of the TP follow these Working Procedures.
The Chair may assign tasks to members of the TP to assist in the work.
The Chair may delegate tasks to the Vice Chairs.
The Chair may be assisted by the Secretariat.
The Chair shall form a Management Team, including the Vice Chair(s) and the Secretariat, in order to assist in discharging his duties.
The Chair may invite subject matter experts or observers to the meeting.
Recognising the need to balance the requirement for rapid specification development with the demand for resources of Members, the Chair should encourage a minimum number of meetings, and maximize the use of electronic means to advance the work.
The number of parallel meetings should be minimized to limit the demand for resources of Members.
The Chair and Vice Chair shall maintain strict impartiality in their respective roles and act in the interest of oneM2M.
