  • foreign minister (minister :topic foreign)
  • education ministry (ministry :topic educate-01)
  • secretary of defense (secretary :topic defend-01)
  • department of the interior (department :topic interior)

Here :topic is being used to mark a set of duties, which seems quite distinct from the use of :topic for communication events.

To avoid overloading :topic with too many functions, maybe we should consider:

@nschneid, the use of :topic for constructions such as (minister :topic defend-01) has been part of our AMR Dict guidelines for quite some time, but just hasn't been applied very consistently, i.e. I have found:

The role :topic has long been applied beyond communication events. The official reification of :topic is concern-02 ("deal with, have to do with, involved, pertained to"), which supports a wider role of :topic as well. The :ARG2 of have-org-role-91 is for "title of office held" and I believe that for a minister of defense, the title and office held is minister of defense in its entirety.

former U.S. Deputy Secretary of Defense Paul Wolfowitz
(p / person :wiki "Paul_Wolfowitz" :name (n / name :op1 "Paul" :op2 "Wolfowitz")
  :ARG0-of (h / have-org-role-91
             :ARG1 (c / country :wiki "United_States" :name (n2 / name :op1 "U.S."))
             :ARG2 (s / secretary
                     :mod (d / deputy)
                     :topic (d2 / defend-01))
             :time (f / former)))

responsible-03 would work in some contexts but not in others:

Of course, if minister (in the sense of cabinet member), professor etc. ever get their own frames, the current role of :topic would be a prime candidate for an :ARGx core role.
