What type of sanction is disclosed only to the person found in violation and the person who originally filed the complaint?

• A. Censure
• B. Suspension
• C. Reprimand
• D. Cease and Desist Order

Answer: (C)

In disciplinary processes, some sanctions are kept confidential between the regulator and the person involved, while others are publicly disclosed. The sanction described as being disclosed only to the person found in violation and the person who filed the complaint aligns with a reprimand. A reprimand is a formal admonition intended to correct behavior without imposing a broad public penalty, so its details are often limited to the parties directly involved. The other options are typically public and more severe: censure is usually a public rebuke; suspension stands as a loss of duties for a period and is publicly recorded; a Cease and Desist Order is an enforceable, public injunction.
