Discussed racket interrupting act (7)
I believe the answer is:
debated
'discussed' is the definition.
(debating is a kind of discussing)
'racket interrupting act' is the wordplay.
'racket' becomes 'bat' (bat is a kind of racket).
'interrupting' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'act' becomes 'deed' (deed is a kind of act).
'bat' going within 'deed' is 'DEBATED'.
(Other definitions for debated that I've seen before include "Discussed in public" , "Argued" , "Considered" , "Discussed formally" , "Contemplated" .)
