V. The Minister of Confirmation

From The Catechism of the Catholic Church

1312
The original minister of Confirmation is the bishop.¹²⁸ In the East,
ordinarily the priest who baptizes also immediately confers Confirmation in one
and the same celebration. But he does so with sacred chrism consecrated by the
patriarch or the bishop, thus expressing the apostolic unity of the Church
whose bonds are strengthened by the sacrament of Confirmation. In the Latin
Church, the same discipline applies to the Baptism of adults or to the
reception into full communion with the Church of a person baptized in another
Christian community that does not have valid Confirmation.¹²⁹
