Since the theft of documents from the Papal residence there are new security measures.
(kreuz.net) Prelate George Ganswein -- the Private Secretary of the Pope -- will remain at the side of Benedict XVI.
This was reported by Vaticanist Sandro Magister on the website 'chiesa.espresso.repubblica.it'.
A false rumor
Last Friday the Roman newspaper 'Il Fatto Quotidiano' reporeted that it had was certain that the Prelate would become Prefect of the Papal Household.
The current Prefect, who is the USA born Archbishop James Michael Harvey, was named as a Cardinal yesterday.
He will be the new Archpriest of the Basilica St. Paul at the Walls.
Actually, according to reports by Magister it is "certain", that Prelate Ganswein will continue in his post as Private Secretary.
With that the speculation that he would be Bishop of Regensburg would also be obsolete.
New Security Measures
Magister reported also about Sandro Mariotti, the butler of the Pope and successor of the document thief Paolo Gabriele.
He has already filled in for this position in the past.
The office of the Pope is off limits for other persons than the two Papal Secretaries.
Finally Magister mentioned that the earlier housekeeper of the Pope, Ingrid Stampa, no longer has access to the Papal chamber since the scandal and document leaks.
