	New section 22A(2) defines what "sport" and "religion" includes for the purposes of section 22(A)(1). ‘Sport’ is defined as including "any game in which physical skill is the predominant factor, and any form of physical recreation which is also engaged in for purposes of competition or display"; and ‘religion’ is defined as including any religion "which involves belief in more than one god", including any religion that has a belief in one god, or any religion "which does not involve belief in a god".
	New section 22A(3) makes clear that a person is not in a position of trust where a person (A) is already considered to be in a position of trust in relation to another person (B) by virtue of circumstances within section 21 of the 2003 Act.
	New section 22A(4) provides for a delegated power by which the Secretary of State may, by way of secondary legislation, add or remove an activity in which a person may be coached, taught, trained, supervised or instructed. Any such change would be made by way of regulations subject to the affirmative procedure in accordance with section 138(2) of the 2003 Act.
