Hi Alvin, Using the Policy Authorization Tool allows you to change policies immediately in a bulk manner. So, this affects existing items immediately.
What you are referring to is that if you only change a Collection's "Default Read Access" setting (from the Collection's Edit screen), this change will only affect subsequent items deposited to that Collection. So, long story short, Lewatle's solution (of using the Policy Authorization Tool) applies to all existing items (but not future ones). Whereas changing the Collection's "Default Read Access" setting only applies to *future* items (but not existing ones). Therefore, depending on your local needs, you may need to use one or both of these approaches.

I hope I am wrong, but my understanding of using the policies authorization tool is that the policies chosen will apply only to subsequent items added to the collection—not to existing items in the collection. In other words, if you change policies to a collection, they will be in effect only for new items and existing items policies will remain unchanged.
