Schedule 3, Part 7, paragraph 29(1)

A minister does not contravene section 29, so far as relating to sex discrimination, by providing a service only to persons of one sex or separate services for persons of each sex, if— the service is provided for the purposes of an organised religion, it is provided at a place which is (permanently or for the time being) occupied or used for those purposes, and the limited provision of the service is necessary in order to comply with the doctrines of the religion or is for the purpose of avoiding conflict with the strongly held religious convictions of a significant number of the religion's followers.
