Cardinal O'Brien to face Vatican inquiry

The inquiry into the former head of the Catholic Church in Scotland is not likely to begin until after a new Pope is chosen - a process starting later.

On Sunday, the cardinal apologised to the Church and the people of Scotland.
He resigned after three priests and a former priest alleged improper behaviour dating back to the 1980s.

Cardinal O'Brien was Britain's most senior Roman Catholic cleric until he stood down as the Archbishop of St Andrews and Edinburgh last month.
