6.    Discuss structure of possible Act. This should help us focus and get words to paper
easier.
7.    Typical Structure:
Short Title. Start with Uniform Misuse of Genetic Information in Employment and
Insurance Act
Scope ofAct. Do we expressly set forth preempted area? Do we start by bringing in all
use of Genetic Information in Employment and Insurance being controlled by the Act and
then dealing with allowed uses, prohibited uses and regulation and enforcement or start
up front with limiting our scope to only what we later determine is Misuse?
Definitions. The definition of Genetic Information will be most important
Substantive Provisions. Do we prohibit some or all use in certain circumstances? If so
how much? Do we structurally set up the Act to prohibit some or all use unless permitted
or vice versa? If not prohibited determine what use use will be regulated or conditioned.
Regulation of testing and interpretation to foster competence. Work through the issues
raised in Study Committee Final Report to Scope and Program.
Enforcement. Agency, Civil, Criminal.
Effective Date.
8.    Direction to Reporter for specific drafting.
