so "when" he next does his next licensing proficiency check (LPC) with a JAR examiner, he'll also have to have that flight observed by a UK CAA staff flight examiner. I doubt your friend will find this option as being the cheapest option. These exams fly first class, stay in 5-star accomodation and charge however many thousands of pounds.
