Laid out for assembly (4)
I believe the answer is:
dail
'assembly' is the definition.
(Dail is an example)
'laid out' is the wordplay.
'out' is an anagram indicator (out can mean wrong or inaccurate).
'laid' is an anagram of 'DAIL'.
'for' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for dail that I've seen before include "Irish assembly" , "Himalayan kingdom" , "Pre-conquest Mexican" , "Irish politicians" , "lower chamber" .)
