This procedure is used by the AF to delete the MBS Session. This procedure may also include TMGI de-allocation. The procedures apply to both multicast and broadcast communications unless otherwise stated. This procedure releases the reserved resources in both 5GC and NG-RAN.
For Broadcast MBS session, the MB-SMF triggers resource release towards the AMFs as specified in clause 7.3.2. For Multicast MBS session, the MB-SMF triggers resource release towards the SMFs as specified in clause 7.2.2.3.
[Conditional] If MB-SMF configured the profile with an MBS Session ID when the MBS session was created, the MB-SMF updates its NF profile at NRF to release the MBS Session ID.

For the interaction with the PCF in this procedure, the NEF/MBSF applies the same decision that was taken in step 10 in Figure 7.1.1.3-1 during the MBS Session Creation with PCC procedure:
If the NEF/MBSF decided to interact with the PCF, steps 4 to 5 are performed.
If the NEF/MBSF decided not to interact with the PCF, steps 4 to 5 are skipped.
