Whether the Consignee on a return CIPL/B/L can be designated as a third party during a simple return

Question

This is an FCL shipment, and we intend to return the entire quantity of goods due to a discrepancy with the contract. The goods are currently in the CY and have not yet undergone import declaration. 1) I understand that when preparing the return CIPL, the Shipper and Consignee can be switched. In this case, is it permissible to designate a third party, rather than the original exporter, as the Consignee on the return export B/L? 2) If a third party is allowed, should the Consignee on the return CIPL also be listed as that third party? If so, will there be any issues? 3) If the above is not permitted, can I list the third party as the Notify Party on the return export B/L?
