Benedict XVI approved the canonisation of ten new saints during an ordinary public Consistory which took place in the Clementine Hall of the Vaticans Apostolic Palace. Among those to be canonised are Belgian Fr Jozef Damian De Veuster who worked as a missionary among lepers in Honolulu in the second half of the 19th century.
