Nicole Belloubet, former Minister of Justice, returns to government as Minister of National Education, on February 8, 2024. She replaces Amélie Oudéa-Castéra who remains Minister of Sports and the Olympic Games. Expected for more than three weeks, the full constitution of Gabriel Attal's government was delayed by the surprise refusal of François Bayrou to join the team. Several members of Elisabeth Borne's government team are not being reappointed, such as Carole Grandjean.
