French term or phrase: dispositions
I just want to be sure about the translation of 'provisions' in this sentence:

'Les dispositions liées à la reddition de compte contenues dans les règlements et les politiques qui guident les OSBL retiennent également de plus en plus l’attention.'

I'm assuming it means 'provisions' as in legal provisions, however, I'm not sure where 'dispositions' is better. Or is there an even better translation? I couldn't seem to confirm this one way or the other during research so any suggestions/comments would be welcome.

Many thanks,

Louise
