I am so sorry, but I want to ask the noble Baroness a question relevant to the one she had been asked, because it does not seem to me that there is a problem. My noble friend Lord Phillips of Sudbury asked what happens if different denominations have different views but the amendment requires it to be,

“in accordance with the tenets of the relevant religion or religious denomination”,

so it is merely relevant to the school in question.

If I might just elucidate, I said that it was not always clear what the tenets of the religion are, quite apart from the denomination.
