Abstract: Methods, apparatuses, system and a related computer program product for processing policy requests are disclosed. The method comprises receiving (410) a policy request for establishment of a session for a subscriber; determining (420) if the subscriber belongs to a group subscription; verifying (430) if a binding exists between at least one policy engine among a plurality of policy engines and the group subscription, if the subscriber belongs to the group subscription; and routing (440) the policy request to the at least one policy engine based on the binding for processing the policy request if the result of verification is positive.

Abstract: A method, system and apparatus are provided for handling emergency calls at a policy server. The policy server receives a request to establish an emergency call for a mobile device, from a service provider server. The request is received in an external format. The policy server converts the request to an internal format, and processes the internal request to generate an internal answer. The internal answer indicates whether the emergency call is permitted or denied. The policy server converts the internal answer to the external format, and transmits the converted answer to the service provider server. When the emergency call is permitted, the policy server deploys one or more policy rules to a gateway server.
