Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

Granting the LTBT authority over both requesting external review and approving reviewer selection introduces an independent check on how Anthropic's Risk Reports are externally scrutinized.

Interpretive note: The excerpt begins mid-sentence, suggesting additional LTBT powers may be enumerated in surrounding text not provided here. Only the two powers explicitly named in the excerpt are captured in the canonical claim.
