Lydon,

As far as I'm aware it is the permissions on the underlying table(s) that count
and not those on the views. BTW it should be easy for you to prove this to
yourself by setting up a simple test.

Also you shouldn't be giving update/insert access to sys objects to other users.
This isn't good practise. It's also not a good idea to create your own objects
in sys if you've done that. The sys schema is Oracle's so we should leave it to
Oracle, except for select access of course.
