Which of the following actions is not an option for the registrar when a violation appears?

• A. Issue a written warning
• B. Require training
• C. Take licensing action
• D. Issue a warrant to arrest the offender

Answer: (D)

When a violation appears, the registrar’s role is to use regulatory, administrative responses that correct behavior and protect the public. Issuing a written warning is a standard step to document the issue and set expectations for improvement. Requiring training is another common tool to address gaps and prevent future violations. Taking licensing action—such as suspending or revoking a license—is a formal sanction available to enforce compliance within the regulatory framework.

A warrant to arrest, on the other hand, is a criminal enforcement tool typically issued by police or a court, not by the registrar. The registrar can refer serious criminal concerns to law enforcement, but issuing an arrest warrant is outside their authority. Hence, a warrant to arrest is not an option for the registrar.
