		<description><![CDATA[I had a conversation recently with a client that yet again confirmed my developing notions surrounding the relationship between business policies and data governance. The discussion focused on how defined business policies relate to information policies, which in turn are composed of data rules that can be monitored and their compliance measured.]]></description>
