Pope Francis sets up committee to advise him on Vatican reforms

Pope Francis has set up a committee of eight cardinals from around the world to advise him on how to reform the Vatican's central administration, the Vatican said on Saturday, April 13, according to Reuters.

The cardinals will help him put into place changes in the Curia, which has been held responsible for some of the mishaps and scandals that plagued the eight-year reign of Pope Benedict before he resigned in February.
