Pope Leo XIV has issued a new constitution for Vatican City State, replacing the one from 2023. The new constitution, published on July 31, introduces several changes. It formally allows non-cardinals to serve on the commission and as its president, a position currently held by Sister Raffaella Petrini. The constitution also establishes a judicial system with three instances and an office of the prosecutor. Other changes include clarifying the roles of the general councilor and secretary-general. The absolutist nature of Vatican City remains unchanged, with the Pope holding executive, legislative, and judicial powers.
