Bill's foreseeable status, in fact? (3)
I believe the answer is:
act
'bill's' is the definition.
(an Act of Parliament)
'foreseeable status in fact?' is the wordplay.
'ACT' is hidden within the letters.
But, I'm uncertain how the hidden word is indicated.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for act that I've seen before include "Major division of play" , "A deed or statute" , "Assumed attitude" , "turn" , "Written piece of legislation" .)
