Incorporating ISMS scope and policy into QMS

If there already is a quality policy within a quality manual at a 9001 certified company, would it best practice be to incorporate the information security policy and scope into the quality manual?

Answer:

Yes, the best way to maintain both quality and information security management systems is to create integrated management system that will fulfill requirements of both ISO 9001 and ISO 27001. Besides information security policy and the scope there are a lot of common requirements of both standards. There are clauses 7, 9 and 10 of ISO 27001:2013 and ISO 9001:2015 with practically the same requirements so they can be addressed at the same time.
