A Policy describes the access compliance requirements for a specific Funder or Institution. These Policies are used to determine which Repositories a Publication should be submitted to in order to be in compliance with its associated Grants and the User’s institutional policies.

| repositories* | List[URI] | List of URIs for Repositories that can satisfying this Policy |

Properties automatically generated by the system are documented in System Properties. These are not available to client tools by default.
Note: this is basic at the moment. Eventually additional fields to help with application of policy logic could be added e.g. materialType to support data policies, some sense of whether the policy is required or can be overridden by complying with another policy etc.
