Vatican may bring forward conclave for next pope
The Vatican has said it could bring forward the conclave for electing a new pope.
It had been expected that cardinals would begin the process at some point after 15 March.
But now the Vatican is considering re-writing its own rules to speed up the process.
Previously it had been adamant that the conclave of cardinals would not be gathering any earlier.
