Hi Lewatle,

As you've seen, Permission changes at the Collection level do not
automatically get inherited to Items already in that Collection.  Each
individual object has separate permissions, and Items only inherit
permissions at the point at which they are submitted.

However, if you need to manage/change permissions in bulk, you can do so
via the DSpace "Advanced Policy Manager" tool.  Here's a video on how to
use it: https://youtu.be/PFlq-yGSPY4

It looks to not be well documented in the official Documentation at this
time (or I'm not finding it). But here's some guidelines wrote up by the
DSpaceDirect team:
