Bans expenses after wife's accommodated for year (7)
I believe the answer is:
outlaws
'bans' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'expenses after wife's accommodated for year' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'wife's' could be 'ws' and 'ws' is located in the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for outlaws that I've seen before include "Bandits?" , "Bans" , "Criminals!" .)
