POLICY CONTROL IN A NETWORK

There are disclosed measures for policy control in a network, including an authorization check. Namely, a method of policy control in a network comprises obtaining, at an application function entity of the network, a request for a service, determining, at the application function entity, whether service information associated with the requested service requires an authorization check or a configuration of a policy enforcement entity of the network, and providing, depending on the determining result, an indication from the application function entity to a policy control entity of the network, whether or not the policy enforcement entity is to be configured for the requested service information, together with that requested service information.
