Agreed, but my point was that it's not necessarily -your- policy (or your
management's policy) that they're reporting on.  The thread had gotten into
arguing why your management accepted the findings if they were't according
to the policy they had set.  Unfortunately, some times policies are set by
external organizations, and your management has less control in that case.
