Excerpt #1

“This policy and the accompanying rules of procedure shall be reviewed within three years and the statement on implementation presented to the University Council.” (University of Iceland, 2014, p. 1)

This is one (the only?) policy so far that has within the policy mentioned the schedule for review.

Excerpt #2

“The Division of Science and Innovation is furthermore authorised to exempt individual articles from this resolution, or to delay their publication for a set period, should the member of staff in question submit a reasoned request in writing to this effect, cf. the relevant rules of procedure.” (University of Iceland, 2014, p. 1)

This mention and procedure is also quite unique, integrating an opt-out application process within the policy.
