Emerging (7)

I think it could be either:

nascent

issuing

'emerging' is the definition.
('issue' can be a synonym of 'emerge')

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for issuing that I've seen before include "Coming forth or publishing" , "Giving out, coming forth" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror and the Evening Standard.
