German term

Konsulta

German to English Other Religion Catholic organizational structure
I can't find anything for the word "Konsulta". Any ideas? The term appears in a handbook on property management for the Society of Catholic Apostolate.
Güter, die einer örtlichen Kommunität gehören, verwaltet der Rektor und die Konsulta mit Hilfe des Ökonomen, in Abhängigkeit vom Provinzial und der Provinzleitung.

Consultors? Yes, it is dealing with the Pallatine's Society. Yes, a Google search for "consulta" leads me to a definition of "consultor": one who consults or advises ; especially : an adviser to a Roman Catholic bishop, provincial, or sacred congregation. My first thought was that it referred to some sort of council, maybe it could be plural for "consultors"?

Try googling "Consulta", there seem to be more relevant entries

might be Here: a consultory body of some sort for "checks and balances" as far as I understand, but can't find the exact term so far
Ingeborg Gowans (X) Sep 27, 2008:
is this dealing with the Pallotine's Society?
By googling "Konsulta" you only get "Consulate" which is annoying.
"Konsulta has been used in the context of business websites, so I think the overall idea might be her: a consultory body

as redirected from "Consulta" apparently this what is meant here. But I am not familiar with the Catholic system, so low confidence level; it does seem to be a consulting advisory committee of some sort
