- The Act requires automatic exclusion rather than support.
- Publication is mandatory whenever support is requested.
- A policy document eliminates every confidentiality obligation.
- The response substitutes stigma and unauthorized disclosure for the Act's support, anti-discrimination and privacy framework.
