If this is the case what is (if any) the formula and when should it come into effect?

Rule 19 is the General Play rule from the CONGU Handicapping system not the Rules of Golf.
That said, it would be unusual to cut a player after having been cut by the system, after playing in two qualifying competitions but it depends on what other information the h'cap committee have.
As it happens, it is forbidden to use a formula to adjust a handicap under the General Play rule (Clause 19.7). Also, a handicap may not be reduced by less than 1 full stroke (clause 19.1).
