One of Cardinal George Pell’s chief aides working on reforming Vatican finances is leaving his post, The Tablet can report. Danny
Casey, in charge of the “project management office” in the Holy See
economy secretariat, had been brought to Rome two years ago by his
fellow countryman Cardinal Pell: the two had previously worked closely
together in Sydney when Casey was the archdiocese’s business manager.
“We are happy to confirm, as was
anticipated when Danny commenced working in the Secretariat in 2014 for a
2-year term, he is leaving us at the end of September to return to
Australia,” a statement from Cardinal Pell’s office confirmed. “We are
enormously grateful for the contribution Danny has made to implementing
the Holy Father’s Reforms.”
