This paper introduces a modelling framework to perform automatic analyses on the specification of an information exchange policy. To avoid the increase of development costs and risks of uncontrolled dissemination of information, the specification errors need to be detected before the implementation phase. We propose a minimalist core language to unambiguously represent an exchange policy specification and a gateway to logic solvers to verify some properties, namely: completeness, consistency, applicability and minimality. The aim is to check whether the formalisation of an exchange policy is consistent with user expectations.
