There are currently no staff at DCMS who have chosen to opt out of the Working Time Directive.</p> answering member constituency Hornchurch and Upminster answering member printed Julia Lopez question first answered 17/01/2022 16:25:08 answering member 4647 label Biography information for Julia Lopez
