Parliamentary terms? (8)
I believe the answer is:
sessions
'terms?' is the definition.
(I know this)
I can't explain the remainder of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for sessions that I've seen before include "Meeting periods" , "US composer" , "meetings or series of meetings" , "Meetings, of court perhaps" , "Sittings, terms" .)
