I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

This clue might be a double definition.

'issue' is the first definition.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for leading question that I've seen before include "That which prompts the answer required" , "Shouldn't someone recommended be concert-master" , "One may be asked by counsel" .)

I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
