As mentioned here before on the definition (or the opinion of "THE"
definition) of many topics, a fantastic gauge is the one provided by John
Godfrey Saxe:  http://goo.gl/MYPM8 

If you ask 6 people for their definition of "Information Governance" you'll
get 6 opinions, none of them will be exactly right or exactly wrong.  Each
organization has to develop their own form of "Information Governance" to
best suit their environment of regulation, compliance and business needs. 

It includes policy, but extends beyond that to practices and procedures and
training is a critical component to effective governance. 

The EDRM mentioned in the PR piece is just that, a "reference model" and
like MOREQ is a "model requirements" document or DOD5015.2 is a "design
criteria document that establishes a minimum set of baseline functional
requirements" that seeks to set a model for organizations to use to develop
their OWN specific Information Governance strategy.
