Of course not.  Basic principles, on the other hand, like who
determines when to keep logs, how long they are allowed to keep them,
for what reasons they are allowed to keep them, who can make an
exception for emergency reasons, how they are to document those
exceptions.  These absolutely should be in a written policy.  What's
the alternative?  Those with the passwords do whatever they feel like
and are accountable to no one?
