Face including concessions raised in settlement (8)
I believe the answer is:
disposal
'settlement' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'face including concessions raised' is the wordplay.
'face' becomes 'dial' (dial is a kind of face**).
'including' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'concessions' becomes 'sops' (sop is a kind of concession).
'raised' shows that the letters should be reversed in order.
'sops' reversed gives 'spos'.
'dial' placed around 'spos' is 'DISPOSAL'.
'in' is the link.
(Other definitions for disposal that I've seen before include "Jettisoning" , "Scrapping" , "Deployment - management" , "Riddance" , "Availability for use" .)
