context_page_description: The conditions for the canonical erection of a house of religious are indicated clearly and succinctly in canons 608-611 of the 1983 Code of Canon Law.
context_section_description: It is the superior indicated in the constitutions of the religious institute concerned (the superior general or the provincial) who is to establish the house after obtaining in writing the consent of bishop of the diocese. In addition, the permission of the Holy See is required for establishing a monastery of nuns. The word "nuns" applies in canon law to women religious whose vows are classified as solemn. These normally live a contemplative cloistered life of meditation and prayer. Other women religious do not need permission from the Holy See to establish a new house.
  In 451, the Council of Chalcedon laid down the condition of the assent of the bishop. Privileges granted to the mendicant orders in the 13th century caused frequent derogations from the law, but the Council of Trent restored the ancient discipline (Sess. XXV, de Reg., cap. iii). The term used in the Code of Canon Law is "bishop", not "ordinary". Accordingly, the required permission cannot be given by a vicar-general or a diocesan administrator. The permission of the parish priest of the place is not required.
