Answer
- A Tells the player that the matter will be referred to the Supervisor/Referee after the match; basically no warning or penalty is imposed afterwards.
Explanation
Section II S: If another point has been played meanwhile, a warning, point or game penalty would be inappropriate. The Chair Umpire refers the matter to the Supervisor/Referee after the match. For a serious violation that may warrant an Immediate Default, the Supervisor/Referee can still be called. The condition is that it has been acted upon no later than the end of the next changeover or set break.
