Consequences surrounding item of legislation for way of working (8)
I believe the answer is:
practice
'working' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'consequences surrounding item of legislation for way' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'legislation' could be 'act' (I've seen this in another clue) and 'act' is present in the answer.
'way' could be 'r' (abbreviation for right) and 'r' is found in the answer.
The remaining letters 'pice' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't understand.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
'of' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for practice that I've seen before include "Exercise; professional business" , "''. . . . . . . . maked perfect''" , "Doctor's premises" , "Habit - procedure" , "attempt at perfection" .)
