(Latin: rescribere, to write back)
Written answers by the pope, generally through curial channels, to petitions, reports, or queries. Lesser decisions and grants are made in these simplest of papal documents. In dispensations the rescript sometimes empowers the local bishops to dispense, at other times it contains a direct dispensation.
