21 ‘The amendment that we proposed in the House of Lords … sought to … make the distinction between religious and non-religious jobs clearer. The Lords did not regard our amendment as helpful. We will therefore leave the law as it is, and not bring the amendment back to this House.’: HC Deb (2009–10) 4 Feb 2010 c 468.

22 The rules are in the Income and Corporation Taxes Act 1988, ss 506 A–C and, correspondingly, in the Income Tax Act 2007 ss 549–557.
