General pardon (7)

I believe the answer is:

amnesty

'general pardon' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for amnesty that I've seen before include "act of forgiveness" , "A general pardon for nasty me" , "When law is suspended" , "General pardon - international charity" , "Dispensation" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent, The Irish Times, The Telegraph and the Sydney Morning Herald.
