| Description | The policy management system is used to store, add, retrieve, prioritise, filter and delete policies in the SPICE platform. The access to this system is also controlled by means of policies which determine who is allowed to perform such actions in the policy management system. |
| Rationale | A policy management system is needed to control the lifecycle of policies that enter the SPICE platform. The policies can be introduced by users, service providers, SPICE platform operators, Network operators, etc into the SPICE platform. The management system provides a framework within which the policies are managed securely and in a consistent manner. |
