Dummy breaks Law 61 by asking a defender if they have revoked. At the end of the hand the revoke is shown to have occurred, but the unauthorised information has not assisted declarer in any way. Do the revoke Laws still apply or is there any change as a result of dummy's infraction?

Law 61B2a: Dummy may not ask a defender and Law 16B may apply

Dummy's violation of this law has no consequence on the rectification from the revoke, but he may be subject to a procedural penalty and his question gives unauthorized information to declarer who therefore may be subject to restrictions on choosing his line of play thereafter.

I agree with Pran

Consider Law 62 Correction of a revoke, then if appropriate any penalty under Law 16B. If no PP is appropriate, Dummy should in any event be reminded of his rights & limitations in Laws 42 & 43
