Vatican City, 2014 (VIS) – The
Council of the Economy met yesterday, 4 September, in the Sala
Bologna of the Apostolic Palace in the morning and evening session,
under the presidency of Cardinal Reinhardt Marx and with the
participation of Cardinals Pietro Parolin, secretary of State, and
George Pell, prefect of the Secretariat for the Economy.
Among the members previously appointed
(communicated on 8 March 2014), the following were absent: Cardinal
Juan Luis Cipriani Thorne, due to heavy previous commitments, and
Cardinal Jean-Baptiste de Frassu, who had presented his resignation
following his appointment as president of the Institute for the Works
of Religion (IOR) and will therefore be substituted.
The meeting focused mainly on the
examination of the Statutes of the Secretariat for the Economy and
the Auditor General, as well as the notice of the transfer of the
Ordinary Section of the APSA to the aforementioned Secretariat (cf.
Motu proprio 8.7.2014) and the instructions for Vatican bodies
regarding budget preparation and accounting.
The next meetings of the Council for
the Economy will take place on 2 December 2014 and on 6 February
2015. It is expected that these meetings will conclude the work of
defining the Statutes of the main administrative organs (Council,
Secretariat, Auditor General).
