The second to the last paragraph of clause 13 of X.509 says:

 

In both deployment models, the SOA issues attributes/privileges to
subordinate AAs. The AAs then request the DS to issue a subset of these
privilege attributes to other holders. In the second deployment model, the
DS can check that an AA is delegating within the overall scope set by the
SOA; in the first deployment model, the DS cannot check and the relying
party will have to check that delegation was performed correctly.

 

I assume that it should say "privilege verifier" instead of "relying party".
Right?
