for every component i
 
 You can override an inherited policy (as described in the 
<<moving-a-processor>> example below).  Overriding a policy removes the 
inherited policy, breaking the chain of inheritance from parent to child, and 
creates a replacement policy to add users as desired.  Inherited policies and 
their users can be restored by deleting the replacement policy.
 
+NOTE: “View the policies” and “modify the policies” component-level 
access policies are an exception to this inherited behavior. When a user is 
added to either policy, they are added to the current list of 
administrators. They do not override higher level administrators. For this 
reason, only component specific administrators are displayed for the “view 
the policies” and “modify the policies" access policies.
