This term is used in sections 3.1. and 3.15, nowhere else and without definition...

The term refers to the "bits" that make up a policy.
Like a policy is "made up of" the parties, the assets, the perms, the duties etc.
Can you suggest a better term/phrase?

I am fine with the term if it is defined somewhere, e.g., in the terminology section. At present it just pops up in the text without explanation, and it isn't even used consistently across the document (it appears only in those two sections...)

3.1.1 Policy Composition

The ODRL Information Model supports flexibility in the composition of the information entities used to declare ODRL expressions.

-> delete the whole sentence; 0 content

3.1.5 Policy Inheritance

ODRL supports a simple inheritance mechanism in which a (child) Policy may inherit all the information entities that the (parent) Policy is composed of.
[...]
The (child) Policy MUST access the (parent) Policy and replicate the following in the (child) Policy:
- All policy-level Assets, Parties, Actions.
- All Permission and Prohibition Rules.

-> s/information entities/atomic rules/ (Since policy-level Assets, Parties, Actions. can be expanded to atomic rules)

also replace all occurrences of information compositions
