It is not clear from your comments as to whether or not there was a clause 31 programme. Based on the statement of “a revised clause 31” it would seem that a clause 31 had been submitted. If that is the case then any further submissions will be under the provisions of clause 32.
The submission (and agreement) of clause 31/32 programmes does not effect the Completion Date. Unless the matter is a compensation event then the programme would show planned Completion as December 2020 against a Completion Date of November 2018.
The Employer’s rights in respect of the Contract being late (when he does become late) would depend upon whether secondary option X7 is used or not.
If the Completion Date has been changed as part of the Contract amendment then that is the date that should be shown on the programme.
Whatever the Completion Date is, it is important to get an accepted programme in order to be able to manage any changes that may occur.
