- represent the thematic chapter,
- present any opinions developed by the CC and provide input to the relevant CA and POC committees and working groups,
- report to the CC and its members, and
- propose appropriate responses to and positions on work proposals and working drafts.
Sub-themes and sub-rapporteurs may be appointed by individual chapter rapporteurs on a needs basis.
