The papal plan to transform the Pontifical Commission "Ecclesia Dei" in an internal office of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith - first announced by the Pope himself in his letter to the Bishops - is about to become a reality. According to Vaticanist Andrea Tornielli, a motu proprio on the new structure of "Ecclesia Dei" will be made public in the next few days.
The commission under its new organization will be presided by the Prefect of CDF - currently, Cardinal Levada - while Monsignor Camille Perl will remain its vice-president, and a new secretary will be named (the post has been vacant since the death of Monsignor Mario Marini a few weeks ago).
The change comes as the doctrinal talks between the Holy See and the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X (FSSPX / SSPX) begin in earnest.
