The question of women in the ordained diaconate arose in the early 1970s at a Synod of Bishops. It was subsequently considered by three iterations of the International Theological Commission and two pontifical commissions. The Synodality took up the question and asked for a review of the research. As a result of October 2024 Synod discussion, the fact that the question is still open for resolution is now part of the Magisterium.
