Subsec. (b): Trial court properly determined that there is no private right of action pursuant to Subsec; its purpose is made clear by legislature's placement of directive in an administrative chapter; that purpose is not consistent with an implied right of action, instead legislative directive is linked to strong reporting requirements that enable legislative and executive oversight for compliance. 277 C. 238.
