Incognisant – unsettled – backing (11)
I believe the answer is:
sanctioning
'backing' is the definition.
('sanction' can be a synonym of 'back')
'incognisant unsettled' is the wordplay.
'unsettled' is an anagram indicator.
'incognisant' with letters rearranged gives 'SANCTIONING'.
I've seen this clue in The Everyman puzzle in The Observer.
