  I prefer "THE Password Policy" to "Which password policy covers
this?"

  I would, however, add a third section that deals with sharing /
revealing / cracking of passwords.  Make it clear (a) that cracking
is not allowed, (b) that sharing is not allowed, and that (c) unless
their is reason to believe that a *strong* (back to one of your existing
pieces) password was cracked, the account's user of record will be held
accountable for all use made.
