Why not just make the law available upon request at the office in charge of enforcement? People that need to know about the law can visit the agency responsible or, they can pay a fee and order a personal copy. Buying it for every library or household seems ridiculous since it’s pretty clear that the vast majority of people wouldn’t even use it.
