How does Clause 24 impact on Sharia mortgages where interest isn’t paid? BTL Clause 24 and Sharia mortgages

Are Sharia mortgages exempt from clause 24?

If so is there a case for transferring to this type of mortgage or does this bring the proposed legislation into a religious and/or racial discrimination area?

Thanks for sharing your thoughts

Yes Robert, you are correct that is what I meant- but I didn't get around to replying to Mark's comment as it did make me laugh at the thought an accountant getting in a muddle ! I guess we will probably have to wait until the the act has gone through to find out how it might be interpreted and whether this could be another unintended (or in George O's case maybe not!) consequence of a poorly thought through measure.
