Ecclesiastical conference

An Ecclesiastical conference is a meetings of Roman Catholic clerics for the purpose of discussing, in general, matters pertaining to their state of life in particular, questions of moral theology and liturgy.[1]

They were prescribed in England by the Council of Exeter in 1131 and the Council of London in 1237.[1]
