This could mean that in a few years every new priest will be qualified to say the traditional Mass.<\/p>\n<p>The Beda College in Rome has no problems with the demands made by the letter, its rector Mgr Roderick Strange said. \u201cWhen the clarification comes, then we\u2019ll start making provisions for it. We\u2019ll be able to establish the needs for it and so on at that time,\u201d said Mgr Strange.<\/p>\n<p>Fr Mark Crisp, rector of St Mary\u2019s College, Oscott, Birmingham, said he was open to the possibility.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat we have at the moment is a Latin Mass in the ordinary rite [Novus Ordo] once a month and we teach Latin, though we don\u2019t have anyone competent to teach the extraordinary rite at the moment,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>But Canon Jeremy Garrat at St John\u2019s College, Wonersh, expressed caution. \u201cWe\u2019d better wait for the instructions from Rome before taking any steps,\u201d he said. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p> All well and good, of course.  But it remains to be seen just how much of an appetite the people actually have for the Latin rite, and how much all that training will actually be put to use.
