It really depends upon the makeup of the clan society and how their by-laws are written. The easiest to answer is the convener. This is a person who convenes a clan tent at the highland games. A commissioner usually is a regional rep for the clan. Large clans might have multiple district commissioners in a particular region. Now all of these folks might convene a clan tent. In my clan society, it is mostly the commissioners that convene the tents, but we have had a few regular members to convene as well. But we are a small society. It could vary, but I would guess that commissioners in most cases are appointed by the officers of the society.
Responsibilities:
Convener is uaually responsible for one event.
District Commissioner might be responsible for a state.
Regional Commissioner might be responsible for a group of states (Southeast, Northwest, Mid-West,...)
I hope that somewhere in there you found something helpful.
