See what happens when normal citizens delegate the authority for making laws to "gov'ment types"? ;-P I feel your pain. The whole world has gone mad with nonsense regulations up the wazoo.
But, soldiering on... this may be the long way around but I had a "don't support cookies or javascript" requirement way back 6 years ago and the solution was to add hidden inputs with the server side session document. The input wasn't obviously named in any way but if there was a "submit" action on the page, we were getting the value when whatever needed submitting was submitted and we tacked the value on the end of every link generated on the page so it was omnipresent.
It was a bit of work as you couldn't just merrily put links on your pages but had to have a session class creating each one for you, but it took things out of the way of "could be turned off by user", which is essentially the situation you find yourself in.
Best of luck. Let me know when Europe passes the "you must take your gov't approved vitamin to receive any health services" law. Looks like they're (some unaccountable policy wonks) contemplating something like that here. Oh, where will the joy end?!
