23    Department   shall   provide  such  person  with  information
24    concerning programs and services of the  Illinois  Department
25    of  Public  Health  to ascertain whether such person has been
26    exposed to the human  immunodeficiency  virus  (HIV)  or  any
27    identified   causative  agent  of  Acquired  Immunodeficiency
28    Syndrome (AIDS).
29        (e)  Upon the release of a committed  person  on  parole,
30    mandatory supervised release, final discharge, or pardon, the
31    Department  shall  provide  the person with an identification
