Censure about her pension, sadly (12)

I believe the answer is:

reprehension

'censure' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'about her pension sadly' is the wordplay.
'about' becomes 're' (regarding**).
'sadly' indicates anagramming the letters.
'her'+'pension'='herpension'
'herpension' is an anagram of 'prehension'.
're'+'prehension'='REPREHENSION'

(Another definition for reprehension that I've seen is " Blame, reproof".)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
