I am advised that the Criminal Code has a general requirement concerning intent, and so that reflection in the legislation is mundane. I am looking at the exceptions:

… the Minister may, in writing, approve a person publishing or otherwise disseminating specified DSGL technology to the public or to a specified section of the public. The Minister may give an approval only if the Minister is satisfied it is in the public interest to do so.

So there are mechanisms within the framework to contemplate the publishing of that material.
