Pope's C8 of cardinals becomes C9

(ANSA) - Vatican City, July 2 - Pope Francis' reform advisory group of eight cardinals, the C8, on Wednesday became the C9 because of the participation of Secretary of State Cardinal Pietro Parolin.
    Vatican Spokesman Father Federico Lombardi said Parolin is "systematically taking part" in discussions which this week are focusing on the governance of the Holy See and of its bank, IOR, which is trying to make the white list of credit institutions with top money-laundering credentials.
