教宗委任楊鳴章輔理主教為香港教區助理主教 梵蒂岡教廷於 2016 年 11 月 13 日宣布:教宗方濟各委任楊鳴章 輔理主教為香港教區助理主教,即時生效。

按天主教教律,教區之助理主教享有繼承權。現任教區主教湯漢樞機離任,楊鳴章主教將自動成為下一任香港教區主教。

The Holy See announces on 13th November 2016, Pope Francis has appointed Bishop Michael Ming Cheung Yeung as Coadjutor Bishop of Hong Kong, with immediate effect.

According to Canon Law, the Coadjutor Bishop of a diocese enjoys the right of succession. This means Bishop Michael Yeung would automatically become the successor to Cardinal John Tong Hon, the current Bishop of Hong Kong, once the latter goes into formal retirement.
