A mistake of supervision (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

oversight

I believe this is a double definition.

'a mistake' is the first definition.
(I know that oversight is a type of mistake)

'supervision' is the second definition.
(I know that supervision can be written as oversight)

'of' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for oversight that I've seen before include "Management" , "Shot giver due to unintentional omission" , "Supervisor's charged with this" , "act of negligence" , "error" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Independent.
