This subchapter may not be construed to require the commissioner to sue or to issue an order as a result of minor violations of this subchapter, when the commissioner believes that the public interest will best be served by a suitable written warning. In such a case the commissioner shall issue a written warning. [RR 2021, c. 1, Pt. B, §110 (COR).]
