Instruction " in the Pope's hands"

Italian religious journalist Bruno Volpe interviews Cardinal Castrillon Hoyos for his website Pontifex, and asks him about the interpretive instruction on the motu proprio Summorum Pontificum. The Cardinal confirms once again that the instruction is now in the Pope's hands.

[Bruno Volpe]: The by now famous instruction on the Motu Proprio that liberalized the Mass according to ancient Roman rite: at what stage is it?

[Cardinal Castrillon:] "In the Pope's hands, it pertains only to him now. Let us trust in the Pope's wisdom."
