A full Parliamentary debate on the regulation had been scheduled for Tuesday 30 November.
The re-scheduling follows a change of diary request from Her Majesty’s Opposition, according to a parliamentary source.
A formal announcement of the new date will be made on Thursday.
Ministers will use the three-hour slot for a full debate on the RDR, including the issues of grandfathering and the appropriateness of exams.
The debate has been called by Tory MPs Harriet Baldwin and Mark Garnier.
