    Obviously not an expert on this...

    redirect 301 /index.php?cPath=21_22_21 http://www.my-domain.co.uk/product-c-21.html
    Code (markup):
    Why would this not work?

    Can you not 301 variable specific (cPath=21_22_21) URLs?

    Redirect works with paths. That is, if Apache matches the beginning of the actual path to the one specified in Redirect, it will replace the matched part in the actual path and will leave the tail intact.

    As for RewriteRule, it will not match the query string. You need to use RewriteCond for this:

    RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^cPath=21_22_21$
    RewriteRule ^index.php$ http://www.my-domain.co.uk/product-c-21.html [R=301,L]
