Read the rules pls. The SHALL requirement is in R649:
A person
permitted and enabled to award (revoke) a Patent Title SHALL do
so in a timely fashion after the conditions authorizing em to do
so are announced, unless there is an open judicial case
contesting the validity of those conditions.
Note there is some unclarity into what happens to the SHALL if there
was an open case, but it's closed now.
[Also: I'm a bit surprised at someone holding an office for a while
being unfamiliar with their sole job with that office...]
