Aid sent to poor is posted (9)

I believe the answer is:

stationed

'posted' is the definition.
('station' can be a synonym of 'post')

'aid sent to poor' is the wordplay.
'poor' is an anagram indicator.
'aid'+'sent'+'to'='aidsentto'
'aidsentto' is an anagram of 'STATIONED'.

'is' is the link.

(Another definition for stationed that I've seen is " Set".)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
