A group assignment (10)

I believe the answer is:

delegation

I believe this is a double definition.

'a group' is the first definition.
The answer is an example.

'assignment' is the second definition.
(thesaurus)

(Other definitions for delegation that I've seen before include "representative group" , "Passing over" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sunday Times.
