Sorry to revive an old thread, but we're back to this same exact situation with the EOL for python 3.9. We're getting email notices from AWS that 3.9 is going EOL, and the CT lambda function "aws-controltower-NotificationForwarder" is on python 3.9. I might be missing it, but I can't find any notifications or information in the CT management console about this and/or how to upgrade.
Any suggestions? thanks.

You are receiving this communication because the AWS Control Tower service contains a notification Lambda Function using Python version 3.6 which is planned for deprecation in July 2022. A new version of the Control Tower notification Lambda will be updated prior to deprecation in July. We will provide periodic updates in the Control Tower management console regarding the updates and any actions we may need you to take. We are aware that some Control Tower customers have received a number of emails regarding the Python 3.6 deprecation for Lambda functions, and we apologize for any confusion that these messages may have caused. We are working with the Lambda team to limit any future notifications.

Hello, The last Python update from 3.6 to 3.9 was in April 2022. The date of the next LZ Python update has not been announced yet. You must keep an eye on the page where Control Tower release notes are posted. Here: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/controltower/latest/userguide/release-notes.html
