The Holy See Press Office announced on Wednesday 10 January that the Holy Father has appointed five Consultors to the General Secretariat of the Synod, including Salesian Archbishop Timothy John Costelloe, Metropolitan Archbishop of Perth, Australia.

The following were appointed, along with Archbishop Costelloe:

–     Monsignor Piero Coda, Secretary General of the International Theological Commission;

–     Giuseppe Bonfrate, Full Professor of the Pontifical Gregorian University in Rome;
