Duties that do not extend very far (5,5)
I believe the answer is:
local taxes
'do not extend very far' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I can't tell whether this works.
'duties' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'duties' could be 'taxes' (I've seen this in another clue) and 'taxes' is present in the answer.
The remaining letters 'local' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't see.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
'that' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
