Case for governmental responsibility (9)
I believe the answer is:
portfolio
This clue is a double definition.
'case' is the first definition.
(portfolio is a kind of case)
'governmental responsibility' is the second definition.
(I've seen this before)
'for' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for portfolio that I've seen before include "Case for loose paper, drawings etc" , "art collection" , "Range of investments" , "Set of collected pieces of creative work" , "Collection of papers" .)
