explanatory session

The building of the temple at its current location survived six public hearings and numerous explanatory sessions.

One group attended explanatory sessions with a health counselor, another attended voluntary group meetings and for the third, a counselor made a home visit with a family member who had influence on the patient.

"That'll hold 'em," he thought, and then the ringing of the telephone called him to his office, and he knew that he was in for an explanatory session with some people who wanted to know why their lights were going on and off.
