I had this email that should answer Joe's question. Entering contingency test results

The original tester is not always available to retro-key contingency test results back into the service at the earliest opportunity, due to absence or holidays.

DVSA will temporarily allow another tester to enter a contingency test result on behalf of a fellow tester who works at the same Vehicle Testing Station.

Any tester entering results on behalf of another tester should record the following within the ‘Comments box’ on the contingency test result entry screen:

the original tester’s name
the original tester’s user ID
This will make sure test results are entered into the service at the earliest opporunity and, until further notice, DVSA won’t take any disciplinary action over this issue.
