Before you respond to Erick - I'll just say add that, for example, the ccNSO FOIWG worked on interpretation of RFC 1591 and other IANA related policy guidelines.
http://ccnso.icann.org/workinggroups/foi-final-07oct14-en.pdf

My understanding is that bodies like the ccNSO or group of ccTLDs are there to develop policies regarding the delegation and redelegation of ccTLDs.
It's my personal view that it could potentially form such a council in future and give opinions. (independent of ICANN board).
