This looks like it wasn't a question but a statement, so I'll limit my discussion to that.

Can indeeds means able and often is confused with the proper term "may" which in the law is permissive (you are legally permitted to do so but not obliged to do so). I suspect in the context here, that this is the proper sense of "can."

This is opposed to will, which the more proper word is "shall" which is obligatory.
