I have read the CCWG-Accountability Chairs’ statement and wonder if we should not also discuss a scenario for the situation where the CCWG-Accountability will be successful in reaching their first requirement:</p>

As far as I understand, these last resort powers are meant to include the powers with regard to the IANA functions. I figure that if the community will already have the final say over the IANA functions through these last resort powers, that:</p>

1. There will be no need for an external solution where the same community will be given the final say over the IANA functions;</p>

2. There is no need for an MRT;</p>

3. There might be a need for a CSC (maybe a CSC plus);</p>
