Both Types of Student Loan - Repayment Rules

Someone I know has both type 1 and type 2 student loans - because they did not complete their first Uni course under type 1 but went back to uni a few years later under type 2. So type 1 you repay 9% above 15K and type 2 you repay 10% above 21K (plus inflation tweaks and so on).
My question is: will they have to repay 19% above 21K or can the two loans be combined into a single type 2 loan? Or what?
