  It shall be the duty of each such superintendent  to  report  each  such
  violation.
2.  The  commissioner  shall  withhold from the state salary paid to a
  district superintendent pursuant to this article twice the value of each
  such violation, unless the commissioner determines  that  the  violation
  was inadvertent, in which case the commissioner shall withhold the value
  of such violation.
3.  In  addition  to  the  remedy described in subdivision two of this
  section, a district superintendent shall be removed from office, and the
  office deemed vacated,  upon  a  finding  by  the  commissioner  that  a
  district  superintendent  has  intentionally,  knowingly  or  repeatedly
  violated  the  provisions  of  subparagraph  two  of  paragraph   a   of
  subdivision four of section nineteen hundred fifty of this title, or has
  knowingly  failed  to  report  such  violation  voluntarily  pursuant to
  subdivision one of this section. Upon such a finding and after affording
  the  district  superintendent  the  opportunity  for  a   hearing,   the
  commissioner  shall  take  all  necessary  steps  to remove the district
  superintendent from office.
