This regulation will then be brought to the House. The Department is working towards schools teaching the new subjects from September 2019.</p> answering member constituency Bognor Regis and Littlehampton answering member printed Nick Gibb question first answered 24/01/2018 17:48:31 answering member 111 label Biography information for Nick Gibb
