Default Can a simple user can enforce his/her security constraints inSELINUX???

i am recently started working on SELinux. I want to enforce a simple
security structure, like there are three users(say user1,user2,user3)
in a group(grp1). The user1 creates some file say file1. user1 wants
to
grant it's access to user2 but not to user3. My question is this can
this type of security model be implemented without root previleges?

i think POSIX ACL's can be used for this

Thanx for the reply.

Is there any way to enforce strict policy in RHEL 4? or to customize
policies that
work like strict policy????
