The immovable and movable goods of the Holy See have a “universal destination,” writes Pope Francis in a new Apostolic Letter, , signed on 20 February and published on Thursday.
In the motu proprio, which refers to canons 1254 and 1255 of the Code of Canon Law, the Pope clarifies the ecclesiastical public nature of the goods acquired by curial institutions and entities linked to the Holy See.
In other words, entities and institutions that have acquired these goods, registered for the sake of compliance with civil regulations, must administer them “with the prudence that the management of the common good requires and according to the rules and competences that the Holy See has given itself.” These include, most recently, the Apostolic Constitution and, earlier, the “long road” of economic and administrative reforms, in the wake of which Thursday’s provisions are also part.
Therefore, “no institution or entity can claim private and exclusive ownership or title to the goods of the Holy See, as they have always acted and must always act in the name of, on behalf of, and for the purposes of the Holy See as a whole, understood as a unitary moral person, only representing it where required and permitted in civil law.
