Pope Leo XIV has reversed most of Francis’ administrative reforms for the Fabbrica di San Pietro and the Chapter of Santa Maria Maggiore, IlMessaggero.it reports. Leo XIV is placing both institutions under the stricter oversight by the Vatican’s Council for the Economy, applying standard rules to major administrative decisions. The autonomy for construction, restoration and artistic projects of the two basilicas had drawn criticism.

This latter act was signed by Gemelli a month before his death. Pope Prevost intervened after listening to experts, taking notes, and consulting internally with the Secretariat for the Economy, thus signing a new motu proprio titled 'Regarding the Applicable Norms for the Fabbrica di San Pietro' which sets a real shift for two important curial realities that have recently been at the center of murmurs and protests for excessive autonomy… …The Fabbrica is very crucial because it handles the contracts for the necessary works for the construction and artistic realization of the largest basilica in the world, as well as all the related structures.

Leo XIV has removed Archbishop Francisco Ozoria, 73, of Santo Domingo from all administrative and financial responsibilities of the Archdiocese. In a letter shared with Panorama.com.do on Wednesday, Ozoria said the newly installed coadjutor archbishop, Carlos Tomás Morel Diplán, has been granted exclusive authority over diocesan assets, economic affairs, clergy management, and church personnel. Archbishop Ozoria, explained that he had requested a coadjutor himself – but only to ensure a smooth transition in the two years before his retirement. However, he expressed surprise that he was left with “only the title” of Metropolitan Archbishop while losing governing power. According to the letter, he was suspended for 'mismanagement', a charge of which he was never informed. He noted he was never warned or reprimanded, aside from a past comment by Cardinal Marc Ouellet mentioning “certain accusations” against him.

During the meeting of the U.S. bishops’ conference on 12 November, retired Bishop Joseph Strickland rose to speak. He urged the prelates to respond to a recent homosexual scandal, noting that a U.S. news anchor in a same-sex “marriage” had been received into the Church and had received the sacraments of Confirmation and Holy Communion on 8 November. “It just needs to be addressed. Father James Martin is involved once again,” he said. Monsignor Strickland also remarked that in the “great pictures” of the liturgy, everyone involved is smiling. “We need to address this issue,” he repeated. Following his intervention, the panel offered no reaction or response.
