'it's cut and dried' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I cannot tell whether this works.

'made pun as well' is the wordplay.
'made' indicates anagramming the letters.
'pun'+'as'+'well'='punaswell'
'punaswell' with letters rearranged gives 'ALL SEWN UP'.

'when' acts as a link.
