Central heating pump continues 30 mins after boiler stops?

We have a Potterton EP3001 control panel. Problem is that when the air/water temperature is reached the pump keeps circulating for 30 mins. Is there a fix?

depending on the boiler type it could be perfectly normal for the pump to run! some boilers have a pump overrun thermostat that keep the boiler running after the boiler goes off to allow the system to cool down a little!
