This Wikipedia article records that Article 50 of the Peruvian constitution states that the state extends its contribution to the Catholic Church and may do so for other confessions, a wording minority religious groups have criticized as discriminatory, and that the government made adjustments in 2011 and 2016 to reduce favoritism toward the Catholic Church and relax registration requirements for other religious organizations.

Assessment
Reliability Tier
3
A crowd sourced encyclopedia article used here for a constitutional funding provision (Article 50's contribution clause and its 2011/2016 adjustments), a straightforward legal fact independently corroborated by the Peruvian constitution's own published text, hence the lowest tier rather than exclusion.
