There is no policy for compat since compat specifies the compatibility level of the debhelper tools and you don't need to build your packages with debhelper. > I was not able to find any policy about it in 'Debian Policy Manual' on > debian.org.

No dpkg-dev is part of the build-essential, see 4.2 in the policy.
