2
But P does not commit an offence where P contravenes a requirement in—
a
paragraph (1), (2), (3) or (4) of regulation 4, if P reasonably believed at the time of the contravention that the notification of a negative result was valid and from a qualifying test;
b
regulation 9 in the circumstances described in paragraph (9)(d), (10)(f), (13)(j) or (16) of that regulation, if P reasonably believed at the time of the contravention that the test was an appropriate test (within the meaning given in paragraph 2 of Schedule 10); or
c
Schedule 11 if accommodation or transport booked is no longer available for reasons beyond the P’s control.
3
For the purposes of paragraph (1)(b), reasonable excuses include, in particular, where—

People you live with or have travelled with should also self-isolate for 10 days from the day after you took a test.
If you received a positive test result for the test taken you do not need to take any further tests. People you are travelling with must still take a day 8 test if they have travelled from an amber list country.
You may be contacted for contact tracing and to check that you, and those who you live or are travelling with, are self-isolating.
You must not travel, including to leave the UK, during self-isolation.
Contact 111 if you need medical help. In an emergency dial 999.

Form C: unclear test result

SCHEDULE 9

Workforce tests
Regulation 7(5)

Interpretation of this Schedule
1
In this Schedule—

“P” means a person required to undertake workforce tests under regulation 7 (requirement to undertake workforce tests);
b
“workforce test” means any of the categories of workforce test described in regulation 7(6).

Requirement after failure to undertake test
2
1
Sub-paragraph (2) applies where P fails to undertake a workforce test that P is required by regulation 7 to undertake.
2
Where this sub-paragraph applies, P must self-isolate in accordance with regulation 2 of the Self-Isolation Regulations until the earlier of—
a
the end of the 14th day after the day on which P arrived in England; or
b
the time P obtains a negative result from a workforce test.
3
P must comply with any applicable obligations in regulation 7(2) during any period that P is required to self-isolate in accordance with sub-paragraph (2).
4
Where P is required to self-isolate in accordance with sub-paragraph (2), regulation 2(2) of the Self-Isolation Regulations (meaning of self-isolate) applies as if it also permitted P to leave the place of self-isolation where necessary to undertake a workplace test.

Consequences of test results
3
1
Where a workforce test undertaken by P in accordance with regulation 7 generates a positive result—
a
P must as soon as reasonably practicable undertake a further test which complies with the requirements for a day 2 test specified in paragraph 6 of Schedule 8 (mandatory testing after arrival in England), in the circumstances specified in paragraph 10 of that Schedule (other than the circumstances in paragraph 10(2) about when a test must be undertaken);
b
P must self-isolate in accordance with regulation 2 of the Self-Isolation Regulations until the end of the 10th day after the day P undertook the test.

Where sub-paragraph (1) applies—
a
if the test taken by P was a workforce test undertaken for day 2, P is not required to undertake a workforce test for day 5 or day 8;
b
if the test undertaken by P was a workforce test undertaken for day 5, P is not required to undertake a workforce test for day 8.
3
Where a further test undertaken in accordance with sub-paragraph (1)(a) generates a negative result, this paragraph applies to P from the time P is notified of that negative result as if the workforce test undertaken by P in accordance with regulation 7 had generated a negative result (and accordingly, from that time, P is no longer required to self-isolate).
4
Paragraph 11(4) and (5) (notification of test results) of Schedule 8 applies in relation to a further test undertaken pursuant to sub-paragraph (1)(a) as it applies to a test provider in relation to a test provided under Schedule 8.
5
Where a workforce test undertaken by P in accordance with regulation 7 generates an inconclusive result, P must as soon as reasonably practicable undertake a further workforce test and that further workforce test is to be treated as a replacement workforce test within the meaning of regulation 7(4).
