Hi Stephane,
Thanks for posting back. I've currently disabled policy and re-run the Telemetry configuration via EMC, just to see it would take, which it did.
Problem is I can't enable Policy again because its out of resource. So least I know it works with one or the other but never both.
Here is were it stands at the moment with sflow telemetry enabled and policy disabled:
POC.2 # sh access-list usage acl-slice port 1
Ports 1-24, 51, 52
Stage: INGRESS
Slices: Used: 4 Available: 4

Virtual Slice * (physical slice 3) Rules: Used: 0 Available: 128

Virtual Slice : (*) Physical slice not allocated to any virtual slice.
If I disable the ACL's for telemetry (show config acl)
configure meter ingmeter2 committed-rate 1024 Kbps out-actions drop ports "Default (IRL.1)"
configure meter ingmeter3 committed-rate 2048 Kbps out-actions drop ports "Default (IRL.1)"
configure access-list telemetry any ingress
configure access-list telemetryegress any egress
i.e
unconfigure access-list telemetry
unconfigure access-list telemetryegress
and re-enable policy the ACL slices look like the following:
POC.7 # sh access-list usage acl-slice port 1

With both policy and telemetry disabled:

Is there anyway to see what's using those 3 slices when both policy and telemetry are disabled, maybe those meters?
