=== Curia reform === Benedict made only modest changes to the structure of the Roman Curia. In March 2006, he placed both the [[Pontifical Council for Pastoral Care of Migrants and Itinerant Peoples]] and the [[Pontifical Council for Justice and Peace]] under a single president, Cardinal [[Renato Martino]]. When Martino retired in 2009, each council received its own president once again. Also in March 2006, the [[Pontifical Council for Interreligious Dialogue]] was briefly merged into the [[Pontifical Council for Culture]] under Cardinal [[Paul Poupard]]. Those Councils maintained their separate officials and staffs while their status and competencies continued unchanged, and in May 2007, Interreligious Dialogue was restored to its separate status again with its own president.<ref>{{cite news | newspaper = National Catholic Reporter |access-date= 2 September 2016 |date= 30 May 2006 | url = https://www.ncronline.org/news/council-interreligious-dialogue-be-restored-vatican-says | title=Council for Interreligious Dialogue to be restored, Vatican says | first = John L.
