Suggesting the welfare money goes in rent (8)
I believe the answer is:
redolent
'suggesting the' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.
'welfare money goes in rent' is the wordplay.
'welfare money' becomes 'dole' (I've seen this in another clue).
'goes in' is an insertion indicator.
'dole' going into 'rent' is 'REDOLENT'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for redolent that I've seen before include "Do relent, being full of memories or smells" , "Strongly suggesting" , "Fragrant; suggestive (of)" , "odorous" , "Smelling of, evocative" .)
