Bring out ecstasy sanctioned by law (6)
I believe the answer is:
elicit
'bring out' is the definition.
(to elicit is to bring out or call forth)
'ecstasy sanctioned by law' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'ecstasy' could be 'e' (informal term for the drug) and 'e' is located in the answer.
'sanctioned' could be 'licit' (I've seen this in another clue) and 'licit' is located in the answer.
No letters remain.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for elicit that I've seen before include "Draw out, say a response" , "Bring something out into the open" , "'Draw out, evoke (6)'" , "Draw out, information or explanation" , "Draw out or bring forth" .)
